  Abstract

The higher thinking skills, such as creativity and problem-solving about a given problem, are difficult to assess and diagnose. For an accurate diagnosis of these higher thinking abilities, we need to fully observe learner`s problem-solving process or learner`s individual reports. However, in an online learning or virtual class environments, evaluation of learner`s problem-solving process becomes more difficult to diagnose. The best way to solve this problem is through reporting by tracking learner`s actions when he tries to solve a problem. In this study, we developed a module which can evaluate and diagnose student`s problem-solving ability by tracking actions in MS-Office suite, which is used by students to solve a given problem. This module performs based on the learner`s job history through user tracking. To evaluate the effectiveness of this diagnostic module, we conducted satisfaction survey from students who were preparing the actual MOS exams. As a result, eighty-one (81) of the participants were positive on the effectiveness of the learning system with the use of this module.
