The Federal University of Pampa Medicine course is developed based on transformative, state-of-the-art pillars of activy methodology. The course transcends traditional practices and training geared toward biomedicalization by recognizing the social and human aspects of medicine, striving to provide a holistic care-based education, and advocating a public health service of quality. Furthermore, the UNIPAMPA medical school brings to the fore the need to value student autonomy, through activities that promote critical thinking and real-life applicability of the themes proposed by the faculty, highlighting the importance of group cooperation, dialogue, development of ideas and problem solving. The appropriation and applicability of active methodologies in health care contribute to this ideal of vocational training. The study therefore consists of an experience report of a critical-reflexive approach of fourth semester medical undergraduates from the Federal University of Pampa (UNIPAMPA). This study refers to the module of Teaching, Service and Community Intergration Practices administered at the Professional Practice Centre in the period from April to June 2018. The study aimed to share the students’ experience in the building and execution an activity for the Health at School Program (PSE) tied to one of the Family Health Strategies (ESF) of a municipality on the western border of Rio Grande do Sul state. The topic developed by the students was selected as it represents an essential aspect of medical practice focused on preventing health issues and yet remains scarcely discussed due to the delicate nature of the theme: sexual health. The activity was proposed with a Team-Based Learning (TBL) theoretical basis, highlighting self-knowledge, prevention of sexual transmissible diseases, empowerment in the area of sexual rights and sexual consent. A dialectical analysis of the discussions was conducted in order to evaluate the activities, (re)define the experiences and compile expectations and impressions of the experiment.
