Abstract

In this paper we propose the use of collaborative tools to enhance traditional e-learning platforms for university courses that are developed outside the school environment, as is the case of a Practicum or internship in a company or external institution. These courses have specific requirements with regard to monitoring, guidance and assessment of students, and we postulate that collaborative tools, usually implemented as cloud-based applications, combined with mobile technologies, today affordable to most students, constitute a suitable platform for implementing the assessment of this type of courses.
