The purpose of this article is to present and discuss the results of a systematic synthesis of research on pedagogical practices through the analysis of abstracts of dissertations and theses on teaching and/or teacher education defended between 2006 and 2015 in the Graduate Programs in Education in Brazil that received Grade 7 in the 2013 triennial evaluation of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES). In this study, it was sought to follow the seven steps defined by the British author David Gough, for a systematic review or synthesis of research. The research findings and conclusions summarized in the abstracts of the dissertations and theses that were part of this meta-research taught many lessons about pedagogical practices. The article highlights the need for ethical procedures – beyond merely protocol actions – for research on pedagogical practices and that they also serve to increase the scientific validation of academic investigations and, at the same time, as a strategy for professional teaching development.
