The paper reports a research on acoustic teaching, whose objective was to provide an environment that could promote the conceptual evolution, not only of science, but also about science. For this, the guitar was used as didactic tool within an advanced organizer  and sequential organization, also to promoter a pre-disposition in learning. Besides the discussion of concepts involved in the teaching of acoustics, it was also tried to raise questions about the scientific enterprise, using historical episodes of science for this. The work is based on three articulated and coherent references: Theory of Critical Meaningful Learning (educational theorist), the philosophy of science of Paul Feyerabend (epistemological theorist) and the Potentially Meaningful Teaching Units (methodological), which are theoretically grounded teaching sequences designed to create an environment in which meaningful learning can be built.. The methodology of the research consisted of the following stages: bibliographical review; planning and preparation of instructional material; implementation of the Potentially Meaningful Teaching Unit; building a page on the World Wide Web to gather materials for students and teachers; the analysis of the data. The results of the research indicate signs of significant learning when using musical instruments in the classroom, as approached by the research.
