Abstract

This article presents an exploratory research of bibliographic nature and qualitative approach, which investigates the epistemological currents in the field of education, focusing on empiricism. The objective is to reflect on the continuing education of teachers and active methodologies for the teaching of Science and Mathematics. The research is based on the importance of experience, reason, and knowledge construction in the educational process. The analysis of articles and books related to the topic revealed that the approaches of John Dewey, Jean Piaget, and Paulo Freire continue to be widely studied and applied in the educational context, highlighting the impact of active methodologies on current pedagogical practice.
