Monitoring, supporting, and engaging students based on the evidence generated by digital technologies

As already mentioned before, it is important to design learning activities that generate evidence and foster learners’ metacognition and self-regulated learning (SRL) skills (see 1.1) and also to analyse and interpret the available evidence to support SRL and learners’ engagement (see 2.1 and 2.2).

In this section, we will describe how to promote student engagement and how to engage students in VLEs. Then, we will provide an overview of Moodle-based strategies that support course design and help engage students on the basis of LA, after having analysed learners’ evidence. Finally, we will explain how to engage students in reflecting and self-assessing their learning process.
