In the School of Building Engineering of the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid (UPM), lectures have identified several problems that are related to student learning. Among others we can highlight the abandonment of studies, the high absenteeism and the high compartmentalization of knowledge. There are many situations in which the knowledge acquired by students in a specific subject is only applied to pass the subject and it is forgotten at the end of the semester. In order to solve the issues, a group of lectures from different disciplines have cooperatively prepared some subjects through the Flipped Classroom model. The work included in this paper were developed by several members of the "Actitud Constructiva" UPM Innovative Education Group. The work has been supported by the "Transversal Knowledge through flipped classroom" educational innovation.
