Abstract

Quality education being a pillar of the development of a society and given that ICTs have permeated the different human activities including education, it is necessary to evaluate how to achieve quality education in ICT-mediated environments, reducing the identified problems of virtual education, among them the accompaniment, feedback and adaptation to the student's way of learning. Different disciplines ranging from pedagogy to neuroscience have studied human learning. This article presents an early stage in the development of the larger project called "model of academic performance measurement based on non-invasive techniques of learning determinants" and focuses on showing in a general way the model, which non-invasive techniques are applicable to determine the student's behavior in a virtual learning environment and the possible benefits to all those involved in the teaching/learning process.
