A tool to reveal the student's work activity along an academic period

This paper presents a web application designed to allow better workload distribution during a semester. The tool was designed to face the new goals that are required for teachers that work within new methods that are fostered by the Bologna Treaty implementation. The tool can help course administrators to improve the effect of some extra-initiatives (talks, workshops, tours, short courses, amongst others), without compromising the performance of students on their work scheduled for the course activities. The paper presents and discusses the motivation and the developed tool.
