Abstract

As members of the target audience of special education, students with High Abilities/Giftness (Altas Habilidades/Superdotação - AH/SD) are entitled to Specialized Educational Service (Atendimento Educacional Especializado - AEE). In this direction, this article aims to analyze the state of knowledge about the work developed in the Multifunctional Resource Rooms (Salas de Recursos Multifuncionais - SRM) and in the Centers for the High Skilled/Gifted Activities. For this purpose, bibliographic research was carried out, seeking to analyze the theses and dissertations published in the database of the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations of the Brazilian Institute of Information in Science and Technology (Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações do Instituto Brasileiro de Informação em Ciência e Tecnologia - BDTD/IBICT) between 2011 and 2020. The results reveal that the work developed at the AEE faces many challenges, such as difficulties in identifying these students, non-compliance with public policies, poor infrastructure, and deficient training of professionals who work with this audience. We conclude that, despite the difficulties, this service is of paramount importance to these students.
