Abstract
Students are supposed to work and learn when they are in the classroom, but how are they learning? Answering this question is not so easy, but perhaps knowing the learning activities of the student and following his or her learning progress can be good supporting mechanisms. The PresenceClick environment is intended to let teachers and students nimbly capture what happens in class to provide them, in return, with information about students’ behavior during class. The system involves two platforms −a web system and a mobile application− that working together allow recording of students’ interactions and provide updated graphical visualizations about their behavior.
