This text sought to answer the following research question: What are the similarities and dif­ferences between the different perspectives of science education, called Science-Technology and Society, Scientific Literacy and Socio-scientific Issues? In this way, our objective was to understand what are the specificities of the three educational orientations, which differentiate them, as well as to find at what point they converge. In order to achieve this objective, a Discursive Textual Analysis was carried out of works published in the annals of the National Meeting of Research in Science Education (Enpec) in the 2011 to 2021 editions. The STS proposals present different concerns, such as scientific conceptualization, social impacts and the development of actions and/or argumentative capacity. In the SSI proposals, the central concern is in the development of the argumentative capacity. Finally, we concluded that the three guidelines provide different subsidies for teachers willing to contribute to the citizenship education of students.
