This article is presented with the purpose of highlight some reflections on the reality of research practice in training initial teacher of Mathematics. Having such problem, investigate and analyze the conceptions of teachers-trainers on the practice of research in Mathematics degree, the research presented by this paper was based methodological on approach qualitative of character interpretative, basing on the use of a questionnaire as a tool for data collection, applied at each of the participating teachers of research, allowing obtain information about their conceptions about the practice of research in training teacher of Mathematics. The subjects of research consisted of six teachers-trainers of the course of degree in Mathematics of University Federal of Rondônia (UNIR), Campus of Ji-Paraná. In response to the problem of present research, it can be concluded that the surveyed teachers understand the meaning of research, relating primarily to the scientific research. These teachers also emphasize the importance of research practice to the personal and professional formation of the undergraduates in mathematics and it is possible to teach mathematics through research. In more, also demonstrate recognize the responsibility of the University forward the context of academic and scientific research, and that despite the difficulties to promote and actualize the practice of research in the scope university, have struggled in the sense that their researches will contribute to their teaching activities and professional qualification and consequently to the formation of undergraduates in Mathematics.
