Item Main Gaps in the Training and Assessment of Teamwork Competency in the University Context(Springer, 2023-07-23) Sein-Echaluce, M. L.; Fidalgo-Blanco, Á.; García-Peñalvo, F. J.Individual competencies associated with teamwork are highly demanded in all productive and scientific sectors. International accreditation agen-cies have defined a set of indicators to identify the individual competencies associ-ated with teamwork competence. Practically all universities address the challenge for graduates to acquire teamwork skills in groups and individually. In this context, it is essential to know whether students have acquired teamwork skills before enter-ing the university and what training method they have followed to acquire them. In this research work, a tool has been developed to determine if they have followed procedures that generate evidence of these individual competencies throughout the development of teamwork, as well as the evaluation method used by the teach-ers who have trained them in this competency. The study was carried out on 171 students from two different subjects, degrees, and universities. The results confirm the central hypothesis of the work that the training method used before entering the university is of the “black box” type, where the faculty does not follow the evidence continuously and evaluates only the final result of the work.Item Study of the flexibility of a Learning Analytics tool to evaluate teamwork competence acquisition in different contexts(CEUR-WS.org, 2017-07-04) Conde-González, M. Á.; García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.; Fidalgo-Blanco, Á.; Sein-Echaluce, M. L.Learning analytics tools and methodologies aim to facilitate teachers and/or decision makers with information and knowledge about what is happening in virtual learning environments in a straightforward and effortless way. However, it is necessary to apply these tools and methodologies in different contexts with a similar success, that is, that they should be flexible and portable enough. There exist several learning analytics tools that only works properly with very specific versions of learning platforms. In this paper, the authors aim to evaluate the flexibility and portability of a methodology and a learning analytics tool that supports individual assessment of teamwork competence. In order to do so the methodology and the tool are applied in a similar course from two different academic contexts. After the experiment, it is possible to see that the learning analytics tool seems to work properly and the suggested new functionalities are similar in both contexts. The methodology can be also applied but results could be improved if some meetings are carried out to check how team works are progressing with their tasks.Item Students’ Knowledge Sharing to improve Learning in Engineering Academic Courses(2016) Sein-Echaluce, M.
