Abstract

This paper describes the construction of a technological and collaborative infrastructure for the creation of physical learning objects. The solution uses a social network, digital fabrication lab and wiki page as an way to propose, build and publish educational objects. The idea is to create an innovative solution to get together a multidisciplinary team of students, teachers, professors and researchers that can propose, define, coordinate, build and publish these objects. The structure is presented and also the first objects and results.
