This paper shares the results of a research on the thoughts about the best teacher and his/her actions in the classroom, which entailed the participation of universities accredited and registered before the Colombian Association of Universities (ASCÚN). The information was evaluated at each university. In this scenario, the information obtained was classified into three categories: empiropositive epistemological conceptions, constructivist epistemological conceptions, empiropositivist teaching conceptions, constructivist teaching conceptions, in a context of pedagogy and didactics. The polymethodic paradigm was implemented, predominantly quantitative and complementarily qualitative; the research was descriptive and comprehensive in nature. From the comprehensive point of view, the sense and meaning of the conceptions underlying the practice of the best teacher from accredited programs through the teaching, learning and evaluation strategies. One of the most important conclusions is that there are still eclectic conceptions of learning, teaching and science. As for their teaching practices, the study revealed intermediate positions. From a qualitative point of view, the meaning of the didactic conceptions from learning and teaching has been found to have an acute constructivist approach from the meaning of the terms rather than from its practice.
