ABSTRACT
MOOCs are Massive Open Online Courses whose strategies have been used by higher education institutions for some years under the SPOC (Small Private Online Courses). However, MOOC technologies present some problems to support the personal relationships between tutor and students needed in a more traditional scenario. As a consequence, some types of activities, especially those that require more personal assessment and support from the tutor, become difficult to track. This article presents a tool and a set of indicators that facilitates the tutor to follow the learning activities of the students in SPOC. Specifically, a case study is presented, where the tool has been used to follow up the virtual course of "Astronomía Cotidiana'' of the University of Cauca over Open edX instance.| Keywords | follow-up · monitoring · MOOC · tracking |
