Practical activities in primary care have been identified as a fulfilling experience, to the extent that they convene professors, students, health professionals, administrators, and the community, who are challenged to add values, knowledge, and experience based on the interdisciplinary and comprehensive nature of the teaching activities. Progress in this area has been identified in the Educational Program for Health Work at UFC, as an efficient methodological proposal for comprehensive, interdisciplinary learning in undergraduate health courses. The current study reports on the pedagogical strategies that fostered an understanding of primary care as a whole through the development of a methodological approach for grasping the total living experience, as a movement in the construction of formative processes.
