Abstract: This article intends  to investigate publications on  Socio-scientific Issues (SSI), produced between 2014 to 2018, for the elaboration of a State of the Art on the theme, using six different databases to support the search for this information. The descriptors considered for the analysis were SSI, and their crossing with three other terms: Science, Technology, Society and Environment (STSE), Science Teacher Education and Science Education. The methodology used to choose the selected academic papers was the analysis by reading all the titles and keywords, checking if there was relevance to the research, after reading the abstracts as a second form of classification and in a third step , then, there was the reading of the complete academic work. We concluded that no studies were found that brought the crossing of the four terms (SSI, STSE, Science Teacher Education and Science Education), there were among most of the  works that brought notes on two or three of the articulated themes, however some publication that incorporated the four was not found, which makes the research proposal of which this article is an integral part even more instigating and opportune, that  is to recognize and understand if the teacher education of Natural Sciences teachers allows them to propose their classes using SSI with a focus on STSE Education, to improve the ability to mobilize content and form critical citizens and those responsible for the society of which they are an integral part. Keywords: Socio-scientific issues. STS. Science Teacher Training. Science Education.
