contents E-activities of a Quality Control course, and their effect on the motivation, knowledge and performance of students at the Costa Rican Distance State University Carmen Andrés Jiménez Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) TIC student centered Evaluation motivation Student-centered learning helps students motivate themselves and straighten their ability to learn and solve problems. The fact that the students focus more on a final grade than their learning process does not necessarily help them learn. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the e-activities and tests of a Quality Control course taught during the third term of 2011 at the Costa Rican Distance State University (UNED), and to find a relationship between them and the students’ motivation, performance and knowledge. A total of 31 students took the course, which was evaluated through summative evaluation, self evaluation, a survey, corroboration of the student’s performance and statistical analyses. Participation in the “cafeteria forum” implied better grades in their first and second exam (Spearman 0,78; 0,78). Those who read the rubrics of the investigation project and the case to solve, got better grades (Spearman 0,90; 0,79), but there was no correlation among the participations of the students in the platform and the final grades of the course (0,26). Self evaluation and the survey showed students learned only 54% and 53%, respectively, of what was expected. A general discomfort and bad performance was found. It is recommended to turn to alternative evaluation, organize themes and materials of the course in a different way, pay more attention to students with greater need, encourage them to participate and to monitor student’s performance next time this course is taught. 2013 artículo científico 1659-4266 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=515651978014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5156 UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED application/pdf Universidad Estatal a Distancia UNED Research Journal / Cuadernos de Investigación UNED (Costa Rica) Num.2 Vol.4
