Resumen
The present study considers the recognition of the characteristics of high
abilities/giftedness (AH/SD) and Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in students enrolled in
higher education. This dissertation was developed in the Professional Master's Degree in
Public Policy and Educational Management. When thinking about these students. It aims
to understand the implications of these characteristics in their learning process. Given this,
the study had as its general objective to analyze the educational trajectory of students with
High Abilities/Giftedness and Autistic Spectrum Disorder inserted in higher education and
the recognition of this condition in this space. The theoretical framework that supported
this research has as main authors: Renzulli (2014), Bulhões (2018), Virgolim (2007),
Nakano (2021), and Garcias (2020), among others. To carry out this work, we opted for a
qualitative approach, in a case study type, based on an interview and a questionnaire with
students with these characteristics inserted in the Accessibility Subdivision, which is part
of the Coordination of Educational Actions (CAEd ) at the Federal University of Santa
Maria. Therefore, the analysis was performed by categories, through content analysis
(BARDIN, 2006). It was noticed that, in the speeches of the participants, several
characteristics of the double condition are evidenced, evidencing their demands and
specific characteristics. Thus, the student with dual status must, firstly, be recognized in
the spaces and, therefore, the professionals know about their specificities to contemplate
their pedagogical demands. As a product of this work, informative material was elaborated
on the double condition to the recognition of this student as well as the educational
practices of the professors; a form was also suggested – “Form for the student in
attendance at CAEd - Double condition” for use in the sector.
