Abstract

This paper analyzes how the insertion of Brazilian Sign Language as a course in Higher Education has been a focus of research since the Federal Act nr. 5.626/2005. A search on different research web sites, like Scielo and Google, has led us to dissertations and theses, as well as papers published in books, journals or annals of events. Such productions analyze: the law as a policy requiring the insertion of that course in Higher Education; curricula, considering the teaching program of the courses; the implications of the course in the education of teachers to work in the inclusion of deaf students; the course didactic materials. Discourses about Libras as an academic course have increased and produced meanings about the deaf, their language and education, as well as effects on the course program.
