The current teaching proposals, along with the transformations which in the areas of knowledge have been going through, provide rethinking the teaching methodologies and their contribution to meaningful learning. In this study, we analyzed the perception of students about the contribution of a methodological strategy of teaching by research in the process of learning biology content. The activities were carried out with 2nd-year high school students, in a private school, in the city of Cáceres-MT. They were carried out in the development of a project that respected the stages of teaching through research: readings and elaboration of the problem and hypotheses, data collection and analysis, discussion about the results, and presentation of the final report at a scientific event. At the end of the development of the proposal, the students participated in a semi-structured interview in which it was possible to verify that in the students' perception there was effectiveness in the didactic approach of teaching by investigation in the learning process.
