Abstract: Abstract This study describes an e-assessment experience undertaken at a Spanish university. Students taking the Project Management module undertook e-self-assessment and e-peer assessment, using the web service EvalCOMIX®. The aim of the study was to identify to what extent students valued technological resources designed for assessment and their opinion of participative forms of e-assessment. Four assessment tasks were designed to undertake during one semester. For each task students had to hand in a piece of work or undertake an assignment to be assessed. The students were asked their opinion on this experience. The results of this survey among 108 students showed, firstly, that they valued e-assessment highly. Secondly, it showed that students found these e-assessment formats very useful for the development of skills such as the application of knowledge, arguing a point, problem solving, analysing information, communication, autonomous learning, ethical considerations, creativity, group working, critical and analytical judgement and decision-making.
