This research investigates the preparation of Science teachers and their perspective for the 21st century, from the analysis of the scientific-academic manifestations of researchers Doctors teachers in scientific education in the areas of Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and Science of Nature. It is a qualitative nature research which narrative focuses on some aspects of the formation of these areas considering conflicts, opposition, characteristics and necessities of the current educational context. I try to deal with visions and assume positions on what the Sciences teachers must learn through the configuration of the trends in preparation and the teaching and learning practices taken into consideration in the 20th century as well as the projections of what would be desirable for the 21st century. In this aspect I identify five analytical categories which were highlighted in my interviews. Concerning the first research category, tendencies point that the scientific contents are fundamental but not sufficient through the educational process and it is necessary to add its formative value. The second category deals with the involvement of the student in the process of learning and teaching Sciences. Dealing with something that no longer can be supported in this century, the third category considers the dissociation between Science, Technology and society, attached to fragmented scenery of Science. The fourth category points to what is new in the preparation of Sciences teachers and the fifth category highlights the processes required of Sciences teachers for the 21st century. The analysis of these trends in the light of the reports and interviews of these objects of research are responsible for the integration between teaching and learning, sharing the pedagogical, philosophical, sociological, and scientific knowledge. Working with current literature regarding the preparation of educators in the area of Sciences, I try to elaborate a few questionings that permeate the investigation, and add to an epistemological change in education: Which views should be prioritized when the issue is the preparation of Sciences teachers? What is basic for these teachers? Academic papers regarding teachers professional knowledge have been a solid contribution to the establishment of a very critic analysis of the work of the professoriate.
