| Summary: | Some researches about Science Education has related the Discursive Textual Analysis (ATD) to the process steps of Thematic Investigation for determination and obtaining Generator Themes. However, it is still necessary to analyze systematically the contributions of ATD at each process steps of Thematic Investigation. For this, theoretical-methodological relations between ATD and Preliminary Survey – first step of Thematic Investigation – are investigated because of the complexity in obtaining information from the community investigated. In this study, the above relations gave origin to the category “Preliminary Reality Analysis”, structured in four subcategories: a) delimitation of living corpus; b) reality scission; c) relations between social issues; d) emergence of possible limit-situations. These subcategories served as theoretical-methodological contribution for the development and analysis of Preliminary Survey conducted in the city Santa Luzia/BA, during a training process of science educators. So, points out the contribution of these relations, as “analytical parameters”, for help researchers in identifying limit-situations from the beginning of investigation of a Generator Theme. In context of Science Education, these parameters can contribute to curriculum reconfiguration, since the actions developed in the first step of research directly implicate subsequent stages. Thereby, the parameters show the reality of subjects more clearly, so that programmatic contents to be worked in classroom have a real meaning and significance for students.
