As students have different learning needs and develop key competences at their own pace, we propose an alternative approach that would help teachers register students' tasks and evaluate them against such competences within an eportfolio that in turn forms part of an e-learning platform. In addition to this evaluation, the integration of support tasks adapted to each student's needs could encourage acquisition and independent learning.

Está claro que el profesorado necesita herramientas para poder llevar a cabo este tipo de evaluación, por este motivo, en este trabajo proponemos una herramienta basada en un eportfolio para poder evaluar competencias que permita, tanto al alumnado como al profesorado analizar y mejorar el proceso de aprendizaje. Además, analizaremos los datos obtenidos de una primera experiencia donde hemos utilizado la herramienta propuesta para evaluar por competencias en una asignatura de grado.

Departing from this general framework, this paper focuses on the appropriateness of these tools to produce well-designed languages courses, as well as the possibilities for creating content and training activities in both individual and collaborative ways, an area which is receiving a great deal of interest in order to develop dynamic and interactive training.

Based on this recognition, in this article we present the Moodle platform as a virtual tutor capable of managing the organization, collaborative teaching, support and the evaluation of online language courses. Consequently, by offering a categorization of tools already created by Moodle users and a number of other modules currently underdeveloped by our group, we aim to ease the online teaching of languages addressed to distance education and b-learning programs.
