This review evaluates a study on the challenges of including students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in Brazilian educational environments. The study highlights gaps between legal rights and actual practice, focusing on inadequate teacher training and school adaptations. While it effectively addresses important legislative advances and the need for better teacher preparation, it lacks empirical data on successful inclusion practices. The review commends the study for its insights but suggests adding case studies or practical examples to enhance its impact on future educational policies.
