Abstract :
Learning in online open networking environments turned out possible by today´s widespread use of Internet technologies, has led to the development of a broad range of products for web-based courses at University level. However, although elearning in education is well established, there are a few attempts to extract information during the course final evaluation phase. In other words, while evaluation of e-learning applications has boosted the need to design effective methodologies for better tools, little attention was devoted to extract information for discovery of student´s behavior.
