The text reports the experience of international collaboration
between the universities of Burgos (Spain) and the School of Health Sciences
Polytechnic Institute of Leiria (Portugal), during 6 academic years till now. What
began as a teaching experience has led to joint research and has yielded results
that make worth continuing the collaboration.
Throughout these six years, 3 final degree projects have been carried out, 12
students have been involved through these projects, 2 research and teaching
exchanges between the teachers involved, 4 presentations at conferences and
the creation of a common line of research, which we hope will give more results.
We would also like to highlight how enriching the experience has been and how,
thanks to it, lectures involved have learned, not only on a professional level,
but also on a personal dimension, acquiring new skills and making real the
concept of lifelong learning.
