Guerrero-Roldán, Ana-Elena; Rodríguez-González, M. Elena; Bañeres, David; Elasri-Ejjaberi, Amal; Cortadas, Pau – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2021
Several tools and resources have been developed in the past years to enhance the teaching and learning process. Most of them are focused on the process itself, but few focus on the assessment process to detect at-risk learners for later acting through feedback to support them to succeed and pass the course. This research paper presents a case…
