Feitosa LRC, Avila BM. Embracing university trajectories: a group intervention using the crossings card game. Interface (Botucatu). 2023; 27:230036. Doi: https://doi.org/10.1590/interface.230036
Abstract
The trajectories of students entering higher education involve numerous challenges. The need to incorporate new roles into university training, leaving the family home, academic expectations and professional interests surrounding students, and the integration of the student population are examples of what constitutes the experiences of university students. This experience report outlines the adaption and use of the card game Travessias (crossings) as a strategy to build spaces for educational dialogue that promote student integration into university life based on a broad understanding of youth and mediation processes in student relationships throughout their experiences in higher education. The game is a powerful educational resource for promoting safe spaces for students to share perceptions of their university experiences.
