The idea of involving groups of learners working together to solve a problem, to complete a task, or to create a product is an educational approach to teach and learn called Collaborative Learning. In this paper we present an approach based on crowdsourcing to involve students in the creation and improvement of educational materials that serve for the study and/or self-learning of certain knowledge included in university subjects. The creation of educational materials following this approach allows the development of an extensive repository of educational content that can be shared and reused within the educational community. In our approach, the active participation of students in creating and improving educational materials is performed by using a collaborative authoring platform called the SlideWiki platform (http://slidewiki.org/). The SlideWiki platform allows users to create and maintain slide presentations (among other types of educational materials) in a crowdsourcing and on-line fashion. This platform aims to promote the consolidation of prior knowledge, to avoid duplication of efforts in the creation of educational material (promoting the reuse of existing materials), as well as to share good practices. %@ 2340-1095
