This study shows that the mode of organization of prevailing education in Brazil, in terms of content and method, is based on the Theory of Empirical Thinking. This is not in keeping with the present stage of development of thought that humanity has already achieved, in addition to hindering the formation of contemporary theoretical thinking. In order to reflect on the possibilities of overcoming these obstacles based on the foundations of Historical-Cultural Theory, we investigated the way of teaching organization in the context of Pedagogy. More specifically, we focused on the learning manifestations of the academics of the Pedagogy course of three Higher Education Institutions, concerning the way of organization of teaching concerning the interpretation and resolution of subtraction problems, based on the foundations of Historical-Cultural Theory. To do so, we accompanied, during a semester, all the classes related to the teaching of Mathematics in the three courses. The data collection procedure was the one of observation, with the aid of instruments like audio recorder, field diary and manifestations written by the own academics. We concluded that, within the limits established by the hours of the three courses of Pedagogy, learning, based on the Historical-Cultural Theory, enabled the students to appropriate and include some theoretical conceptual elements in the way of teaching organization. We verified that the time load destined to the Mathematics discipline is one of the factors that, in a certain way, conditions the way of class development and limits the conceptual systems approached. With the aggravating factor regarding the level of initial development of the academics, this hinders the formation of the way of organization of teaching at a theoretical level. However, the didactic intervention developed by the three teachers put them in a learning movement and, therefore, a higher level of development than the initial one. The didactic mediation, developed in the zone of proximal development, allowed the change of quality, since the difference between the initial and final understandings was expressive.
