Efectos en el examen final de la participación del estudiante en cuestionarios online
2016
[EN] This paper looks into the different evolution of students’ online questionnaire performance and its impact on the final examination mark.

Using cluster analysis, we identify different groups of performance evolution. The evidence obtained suggests that in one of this groups a favourable test performance evolution may lead to overconfidence with the subsequent negative effect on the final examination mark. Future research with more variables and bigger samples will help identify this student profile with a view to preventing this undesired negati…
