Abstract

This article aims to present the theoretical-methodological propositions for Revolutionary Collaborative Research in Special Education developed by researchers from the Research Center on Education and Diversity (NEEDI) at the Federal University of Alagoas, the Federal University of Agreste Pernambucano, and the State University of Health Sciences of Alagoas. The theoretical-methodological assumptions of this proposal are outlined along with possibilities that foster critical reflection in the collaborative process, which may mediate the revolutionary transformation of the research situation involving Special Education teachers. These multiple pathways aim to construct Collective Zones of Proximal Development and consequently provoke transformations and/or micro-revolutions in the daily lives of all involved. To better understand these appropriations, the methodological processes described by Sarmento (2018) and Dounis (2019) are presented, demonstrating their potential for the field of Special Education. Thus, collaborative research itself and its paths can be part of a revolutionary activity engendered throughout this process, in a collectively constructed zone of development from distinct experiences and intersecting affections at different moments and constructions.
