All active methodologies have common objectives and processes. Their mission is to ensure that students participateactively in the learning process, cooperating with other students, reflecting, making decisions and creating knowledge. Forthis purpose, groups that work in a timely manner to carry out an activity or in a more stable way through work teams areusually formed. In both cases, active learning takes place within the groups. This work proposes fostering an active inter-team learning; that is, forming a meta-team where active learning takes place. The aim is checking if students who follow anactive methodology, have the active habit; that is, if the work teams share knowledge among themselves and use it toimprove their own knowledge. The proposed model contains a virtual layer that all teams can access, making possible thecooperation, the creation of new knowledge, reflection and decision making. This model is applicable to any activemethodology and the proposed model has been applied to the Micro Flip Teaching methodology. This quasi experimentalresearch methodology, based on quantitative and qualitative assessment, shows how the work teams, in an Engineeringcontext, in this case, use this virtual layer and how that use impacts the academic performance of their members. Anotherconclusion of this work is that feedback must be included in active methodologies.
