The project was developed in Spain between the University of Córdoba and the University of A Coruña. It consisted of an intercultural, interuniversity, cooperative learning experience among first year undergraduate Nursing students during their clinical practice period. The aims of this project were to find common ground in the usual distortion between theory and practice that the students detect when they develop their first clinical practice; to work in cooperative teams; and to increase critical and self-critical skills. Faculty participant experience was evaluated using the SWOT model (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats). For students, finding equality among differences presented itself to be a great learning opportunity, despite the trouble derived from cooperative teamwork. In conclusion, we can affirm that the teaching method employed showed its effectiveness and complexity.
