Abstract

This text is an introductory note to a set of five texts with a thematic focus on qualitative research. Qualitative research in education is discussed in its articulation with the teacher researcher movement, as a movement that perceives the teacher to be a reflexive professional that problematizes practice and learns from its analysis, by resorting to a diversity of methods. A synopsis of each of the five texts, which were presented at the 4th Ibero-American Congress on Qualitative Research (CIAIQ2015) in Brazil, is made. The texts discuss studies undertaken in several contexts, namely teacher education, schools, classrooms, and literature review. They show how the teacher researcher can become a social scientist that uses the results from the knowledge produced in order to improve his/her students’ learning.
