Abstract

The present study aims to explore the experiences of a Physical Education ungraduate in promoting meaningful experiences through swimming. A self-study was carried out by a swimming intern and her critical friend, a teacher with a master's degree with extensive experience in teaching swimming. For data collection, multiple sources were used: WhatsApp messages, E-mails, planning documents and informal conversations. Data analysis was performed using the content analysis technique, with the categories determined a posteriori. The undergraduate student's experiences were described in three categories: comparison between the traditional approach and the approach to promoting meaningful experience, intervention experiences in classes and final reflections. It is concluded that to promote meaningful experiences through swimming it is necessary to include fun, social interaction, challenge and personally relevant learning.
