Abstract
While in traditional learning scenarios, formative assessment relies
solely on the judgment of teachers, technology enhanced learning provides means
for automatically identifying room for e ective learning improvement. Given a
digital learning environment and the support of learning analytics, it is possible
to infer input for formative assessments. Teachers might be assisted by systems
to adapt their teaching practice and to individually assess students. In this paper,
we present evidence of this matter by reporting the experience of a teacher during
a 13 week language course and by analyzing the students’ content production in
an online environment during the same period
