Wikipedia, the world’s largest encyclopedia, is having a huge impact on the way many people gather information. It is based on several revolutionary principles: mass collaboration, crowdsourcing, the wisdom of the crowds, an open licensing model, etc. The project “Descuadrando” intends to set up an accounting and finance encyclopedia following the same model as the Wikipedia. Therefore, it is based on the software known as wiki, which consists of Websites that anyone with Internet access can edit. The project is funded by the University of Granada and is addressed not only to students, but to the whole academic, professional and business community. A constructivist approach to knowledge is used in order to integrate different points of views and interests of the stakeholders in the field of Accounting and Finance. Moreover, the platform provides the students an opportunity to contribute to the business community by sharing the knowledge they create.

Awarded and funded by the University of Granada (Spain) in 2008 and 2010 as innovative educational project.
