• Resumen

  • The Learning Management Systems provide a set of facilities for the lecturer to manage his courses. Unfortunately, they have limitations when it comes to assessing generic skills. In most of them, every activity is assessable but just with a simple grade and there is not a direct link between activities and generic skills. In this work we present two alternatives to solve this issue: an assisted method based on a Model-driven architecture approach and a Rest Web service that facilitates the assessment of generic skills. We apply both approaches to a case study consisting in a Moodle-based course where we assess the ability of plan and manage time of each student. Results show that the approaches are complementary, the Web service provides more detailed formative feedback, but the Model-driven approach seems more scalable for courses with a high number of students, where it is more difficult to assess their generic skills.
