Dinamización de las clases y evaluación formativa con WOOCLAP

Abstract

During the last two decades, teaching methodologies include activities to increase students’ active participation and to enhance class dynamization. The main objective of this paper is to propose and validate a software tool, WOOCLAP, with the purpose of making classes more dynamic and increasing student participation in an effective way, as well as facilitating formative assessment and feedback to the students. We present the experience of the tool implementation in four groups in bachelor and master programs. Findings provided by professor experience and a survey among students show very positive results. This initiative arises from the experience of an Educational Innovation Project at Universidad Pontificia Comillas.During the last two decades, teaching methodologies include activities to increase students’ active participation and to enhance class dynamization.
