Abstract

The jump from Secondary Education to University is noticed by students once they have seen the bad obtained results after the first ordinary exam session they deal with. Many factors such as group integration problems, lack of motivation and/or required study methodology turn the jump a difficult wall to overcome. The aim of this work is start a discussion of some ideas for redesign a continuous assessment in Mathematics for Chemistry and Geology Bachelor degrees so in the near future we have a defined work lines to submit and implement an educational innovation project.
