The cultural diversity in the formation of the Special Education professional

The University, as an essential promoter of culture, must face the challenge of cultural diversity. In the present work, the psychopedagogical foundations of the integral formation of the students of the degree of Special Education are approached from an intercultural perspective. A methodological strategy is presented that guarantees the preparation of the faculty give attention to cultural diversity, based on the principle of respect and acceptance of it, and from the theoretical assumptions of transculturation and intercultural training seen from the process of the university student's training. The proposal offers the teacher the necessary resources that, from the classroom and other contexts of action, allow him to direct the training process in three fundamental dimensions: the teaching-methodological, the labor-research and the educational-extension, with the projection of methodological actions that foster the development of training from an intercultural perspective.
