RT Conference Proceedings T1 A Milestone-Driven Approach for Lab Assignments Evaluation in Information Security A1 Núñez Montañez, David Alejandro A1 Moyano, Francisco A1 Nieto, Ana A1 Ortega, Juan J.

The approach relies on the integration of ICTs with an automatic, milestone-based evaluation. The final goal of this methodology is to diminish educators’ workload on lab assignments, so they can focus on the development of the assigned tasks, and to enhance students’ experience by providing direct and real-time feedback on their progress. This approach encourages autonomous learning on the students and optimizes the time invested by the educators during the lab assignments. In order to validate our proposal we have applied this methodology in several courses related to Information Security. The results of this experience show that the methodology improves students’ performance, while facilitating the work of the educator.
