In this work, we presented a characterization of the academic-scientific production recently linked to Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em Ensino de Ciências (ENPEC) on experimentation, in terms of the objectives associated by the authors of these productions to the use of this teaching resource. We focused our analysis on the last five editions of this event (2009, 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017), in which 113 papers published on this topic were identified. As a result of the reading and interpretation of the information collected in these productions, we elaborated 06 categories of analysis a posteriori. Finally, it has been possible to affirm that a significant number of works are related to different established categories, which shows a diversity of objectives associated with the use of experimentation. On the other hand, it is worth highlighting the fact that most of the papers analyzed present arguments that support the use of experimentation once they believe that this teaching resource has the potential to motivate and to effect students' learning about a certain element of the conceptual field in study.
