Sumario:This paper presents innovations to stimulate the autonomy of engineering students by using different active methodologies. The strategies designed to address this problem are based on analyzing students’ learning styles and incorporating specific tools into teaching practice, such as “M-eRoDes,” which supports the automatic evaluation and feedback of concept maps created by them. Among the main findings, the students’ assessment of the activity “making concept maps” stands out as useful but not easy. Despite the difficulty, or precisely for that reason, the experience has contributed to improve their autonomy and to develop skills to express the knowledge they have learned.
