Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have been increasingly applied to teaching. Although these tools improve and reinforce the student's learning, the students are not usually involved in the creation of new digital material, but rather they are only users of them. This paper presents a methodology that combines collaborative learning with the use of ICTs, and in particular with YouTube. The main objective of the methodology is to put the students as the real protagonists of the learning process, to reach deep learning and to improve a wide range of transversal competencies such as teamwork, oral expression, creativity, critical spirit and acceptance of external criticism. Finally, an example of practical application on the methodology is presented and the main conclusions of this work are listed.
