Abstract

The purpose of the study is the analysis of students’ perceived utility according to different methods of continuous assessment. Besides, there are of interest the differences between those methods, carried out through the use of an Personal Response System o “clickers”. In this study participated 243 university students. There were developed different sessions and assessment methods (questions showed individually or in group; continuous assessment; training evaluation; different incentives for participation). Results showed that students, in general, perceive these systems as useful to their daily and autonomous study. In the same way, results showed higher students’ perceived utility when their participation is considered in their grade and when they know the moment when the assessment session will be done
