This work aims to present and discuss theoretical and pedagogical foundations of education for research, seeking to identify the limits and possibilities of this approach in teaching science from official documents and articles that address the issue of investigative approach to science education. The results show numerous possibilities of investigative approaches in science education that most often are limited by aspects of teacher education.
