Abstract:

This paper presents an innovative-project research on promoting self-learning in engineering university courses. This paper is focused on students' homework, which consists in producing learning objects. The digital objects are self-contained and reusable within the course framework according to a suitable work plan and supported by digital tools. Additionally, in order to help the student on the achievement of curricula competences by producing these objects, they are also available to the whole group in the form of a digital collection of self-study material adapted to the group's characteristics. This paper describes a case of study, analyses students' perception of the activity, and quantifies the success of the experience.
