Competencias

Moodle 2.x

Nota del traductor: La palabra ingles Outcomes se tradujo al Español internacional como Resultados y en el Español de México como Competencias.

Las competencias son descripciones específicas de lo que el alumno ha demostrado y entendido al término de una actividad o curso. Cada competencia es valorada por medio de algún tipo de escala. Otros términos para competencias son resultados, y metas. En términos simples las competencias son similares a sub componentes de una calificación. Una calificación es una evaluación del desempeño general que puede incluir examenes, participación, asistencia, y proyectos. Las competencias evalúan aspectos específicos del conocimiento mediante una serie de enunciados, que pueden estar codificados con números o letras. Así pues, una calificación general puede darse para un curso, junto con enunciados acerca de competencias específicas en la forma de competencias.

Habilitar las competencias

1. Vaya a Administración del sitio > Características avanzada y asegúrese de que esté activada Habilitar competencias (por defecto está desactivada).

2. Para cada actividad, eleja cual de éstas competencias aplica usando la casilla en la página de configuraciones de la actividad.

4. Use las competencias como parte de la evaluación para estudiantes, o vea el reporte de Competencias para una retroalimentación útil acerca de cómo se están desempeñando en generallos estudiantes en la clase.

The outcomes report in Administration > Course administration > Grades > Outcomes report helps teachers monitor their students' progress using outcomes. It lists site-wide outcomes and custom outcomes used in the current course, their overall average (each outcome can be measured through many grade items). It will show the name, course and site wide average, the activity, the average values and the number of "grades" given.

The outcomes report is a table with 6 columns:

• Short name - the short name of the outcome used in this course.
• Course average -shows two values representing the average scores given to students for each outcome used in this course.
• Site-wide - Whether the outcome is a site-wide outcome or not.
• Activities - This lists the activities that use this outcome in this course. A new row is created for each activity, and the activity name is linked to the activity's page.
• Average - the average score for each activity using the outcome in this course.
• Number of Grades - The number of grades given to students for each activity using the outcome.

To import outcomes:

2. Choose 'Import as custom outcomes (only this course)' or 'Import as standard outcomes' as required
3. Upload the csv file

Note that while importing:

• Existing outcomes and scale will be used if available (no overwriting is done by the script)
• The script will stop if it detects that the file contains invalid data

Remover competencias seleccionadas para actividades

Previously selected outcomes are greyed out on the update activity page, however they can be removed via the gradebook on the categories and items page. They will appear in the list either below or above the activity they have been enabled in and will have the same icon as that activity. Note that if you have renamed the outcome since you assigned it to the activity, the orginal name will be displayed. Deleting the outcomes from this list will result in the outcomes being deselected on the update activity page.
