This article aims to discuss the role of research in the initial teacher education courses based on an experience with integration projects (IP). Its development is based on three organizing concepts: initial teacher training, integrated curriculum and interdisciplinarity. It also discusses the importance of a teacher education curriculum which enables the relation between theory and practice, as well as the dialogue between subjects, reflection and critique. This work also highlights the importance of the availability of teachers from different disciplines for sharing their experiences, their knowledge, their certainties and uncertainties. It has as an analysis context a report prepared by a third period class (second year college) with major in Spanish. It is based on the principles of qualitative research. This work emphasizes the indicators which point to the integration of disciplines starting from the IP and its importance to the formation of the research teacher and for the integration of the group-class.
