Keywords:
Students with disability, Higher education, Lecturers, Biographical-narrative methodologyAbstract
This work is centered around the suggestions that 44 students with disabilities made to lecturers in order to achieve learning-teaching processes become more inclusive. All the information was collected in the frame of a project entitled “Barriers and aids in University as identified by disabled students with disability” (ref. EDU 2010-16264) which is being completed to-date and has been financed by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. A biographical-narrative methodology has been employed for the elaboration of this project. The analysis of the data described was mostly of structural and narrative nature. The article’s conclusions reveal that there are three major areas for improvement where students participating in the study mainly placed their stress: attitude of the faculty staff towards them, teaching techniques and professors’ level of training on handicap and disability management within the University context as well as on the use of the new technologies. The study concludes with a discussion and a comparative of its results with those from previous works.
