Given the complexity of the educational context and given its multifaceted pluriversal, reflection and the search of the conceptual bases of science and Biology while know organized is a condition essential to revisit the sense of teaching work in basic school. This discussion leads one to question what theoretical subsidies could provide support to think science education as a possibility for a responsible society and critique, from a systemic and integrated understanding of the biological knowledge govern life. The development of this research a qualitative type design using data collection instrument the semistructured interview technique from a screenplay by open and closed questions, analyzing the understanding of teachers of Biology of the municipality of Santiago/RS about the epistemological assumptions, methodological, ethical and ecological implicated in the study of ecological systems for teaching biology. For meaning and categorization of the data obtained, using the technique of content analysis. In the analysis of the data for each category established a priori, based on theoretical foundation of this research, came to the following results, namely: 1) Epistemology - recognition of limits and epistemic weaknesses on ecological systems, in a proposal of paradigm shift. 2) Methodology - awareness and contextualization as didactic transposition strategy and its possibilities in teaching of ecological systems. 3) Ecology - the knowledge as a condition for the care, raising awareness, sense of belonging and respect for the environment; 4) Ethics - reflection as imperative for the awakening of consciousness and condition for active and responsible citizenship. This analysis indicates the need for resumption, both in scope of teacher education in the undergraduate as in continuing education, basic issues surrounding the production of knowledge. In this perspective, the epistemology and history of science could contribute significantly to a more systemic approach and critical ecological systems in health class. Teaching Biology, especially with regard to ecological systems is to value beliefs that not only promote intellectual understanding, but awaken critical attitudes and citizenship. The main legacy that teachers can leave to discuss ecology and ecological systems is situate and empowering the human being of all time and of all generations about the greatness of human rationality as a possibility to meet, understand, transform and be responsible for taking care of life and to offer it save to the future generations.
