Laboratory work is one of the most important activities in technical degrees. In these classes, students learn while carry in gout tasks similar to those they could encounter in a professional environment. These activities help to streng then the theoretical principles while allowing the students to develop useful skills for their careers. In this paper, we present three experiences (LabBattle, LabRace, and Lab Triathlon) in the organization of practical activities based on the paradigms of competitiveness and project-orientedlearning (POL). The goal of these techniques is to immerse the students in anenvironment as real as possible. In suchscenarios, it is often important to be first, to think like the ́badguy` or to keep confidentiality. After three years applying these techniques we have observed a great motivation and excellent competences in the students. Moreover, cheating has been less frequent than in other types of lab assignments.
