Most Brazilian public policies have always focused on scientific research, giving little importance to pedagogical practices. For this reason, the aim of this article is to analyze the scientific production about teaching in Higher Education. For this purpose, bibliometrics indicators were constructed, based on a data collection from the SciELO Brazil. The results pointed to an upward trend in the number of publications about the subject analyzed. The main themes of this production were related to didactic practices, evaluation systems and teacher’s health. It was verified that some of the journals that have more published articles on the subject are not from the area of Education, but of other scientific fields like Chemistry, Medicine and Nursing. It is concluded that the growing importance of the discussion within the scientific community demonstrates that public policies should be adapted to the needs of higher education, so the didactic training of the future teacher should also be a priority.
