Abstract:
This paper presents the e-collaborative project developed at the University of Alcala de Henares. The purpose of the project is combining the need to actively promote the use of ICT among university students, while facilitating the practical application of the skills acquired during their education. To this end a learning community based on a web environment that allows the development of interactive and interchangeable digital content has been created, contributing to make of the university environment a space to exchange knowledge, share experiences and build knowledge in and for the group. E-Collaboration is one of the first experiences of ‘Polimedia System’ students use, aimed at developing their own training content by combining individual learning with team learning and basing on the effective combination of theory and practice and its application to the improvement of the learning process in universities.
