ABSTRACT This study aims to report the experience of two students enrolled in a basic internship discipline focusing on the development of systematic observation. The experience took place in 2016, in the context of the fifth semester of the Psychology course at a private university in the state of São Paulo. Students enrolled in the discipline should perform 4 hours of observation and 2 hours of academic supervision per week. Nine guided observations were made, starting from random observation until a systematic observation. The results showed that the discipline promoted the approximation between theory and practice and enabled an integration with other subjects previously studied. It was found that the knowledge acquired throughout the semester, personal development in the field and the advances perceived in the discipline were central to the students' professional training and to the preparation of the subsequent stages of the psychology course - the focus of the discipline.

Keywords : observation; curricular internship; psychology teaching.
