This study, inserted in the Teaching Area, in the Educational Practices in Vocational Education research theme, and of applied nature, was conceived from the demand of inclusive educational practices for deaf students enrolled in Integrated High School Vocational Program at a Federal Institute in the southeast of Brazil, and aims at understanding how a deaf student learns a complex concept. To do so, an educational product was elaborated, implemented and evaluated focusing on teaching activities about the concept of Matrix, prioritizing the participant’s learning specificities. The research, a case study with only one participant enrolled in the Vocational Computing Program, generated data from the study of institutional documents and texts from database, interviews, learning activities and teaching procedures from a guiding theme. Data analysis indicates that if methodological teaching procedures are regularly adopted with a view to respecting the learning specificities of deaf students, added to inclusive educational resources, they will have more opportunities to learn complex concepts when inserted in non-bilingual educational contexts. However, the study warns about the need to expand the number of participants in order to corroborate, refute and/or enlarge the results of the present study.
