In order to evaluate its meaningful learning and scientific knowledge generating potential, the results of a pilot implementation of an alternative research methodology called “in relay”, were explored and described. 8 teams of 8 students of the course “Introduction to Environmental Education” participated sequentially and transiently from collecting and analyzing data to presenting research results. Quality of partial reports generated by students participating in a research project, conducted from April 2014 to August 2015 on the subject of superficial water quality, and prevalence of meaningful learning generating processes was evaluated. It was found that in processes such as selection of literature, calibration and piloting of tools, and application of basic rules of citation and referencing, which presented quality values below the minimum acceptable, prior training and accompaniment by the lead researcher is essential. In addition, stages such as the construction of the research theoretical and methodological framework showed a significantly higher prevalence of meaningful learning generating processes than that evidenced in stages such as the construction of context and the collection and analysis of field data.
