The following is a proposal for collaboraton between universites with the aim to improve curricula that require laboratory actvites. A methodology is suggested to implement an innovatve educatonal project involving the exchange of laboratory actvites. The exchange of laboratory actvites can be carried out on diferent levels of interacton, requiring diferent levels of complexity in setng up the actvites. A frst experience was carried out in the area of machine design. Google+ was the chosen social network. A Google+ community was used to share academic material (notes, videos, actvity guides, etc.) and the actvity itself was carried out using Google Hangouts. The survey administered at the end showed the students' satsfacton with the experience.
