“…Then, through a detailed design of the activity, the evaluation scenario is developed using the Web Ardora technology 1 . Instructional content is created according to the objective of learning and the feasible applicability on the part of the student to achieve the expected achievement indicator [21,22].…”

During the pandemic months, from May to September 2020, the evaluation of emerging online learning has taken the attention of higher education educational institutions in the country, especially in the city of Guayaquil. This work presents the design and use of activities in scenarios based on interactivity for learning, through Ardora web, as a complement to the process of evaluating subjects in the Computer Engineering Career. The quasi-experimental quantitative approach study at the descriptive level is carried out to five groups of students in the subjects of Programming, Systems Modeling and Information Systems during the fully virtual academic period 56, for the purposes of the pandemic, at the Salesian Polytechnic University in the city of Guayaquil. The results of this work show that, during the online modality, teachers applied gamification for evaluation using renewable learning objects considering the quality of experience, reuse capacity and virtual context for the development of the specific learning achievement indicator within the subject's syllabus. It is further evidenced that students who passed the courses gained greater satisfaction in performing gamified activities rather than traditional activities. It is found that the level of approval in each course averaged 96% in this period compared to the previous one.

“…However, while zero-rating gives free access to LMSs and other resources, there are still costs to be covered by other stakeholders, such as the government, network operators, content providers or donors (McBurnie et al, 2020). Platforms that use limited data, such as Kolibri, can be used (McBurnie et al, 2020) but Kolibri requires a micro-server, such as the Raspberry Pi or other single-board computers (Dhuny et al, 2022;Ibarra et al, 2017;Soto et al, 2019). Using Raspberry Pi as a micro-server to access an LMS has shown great potential (Dhuny et al, 2022;Ibarra et al, 2017).…”

Low-powered mobile devices such as Raspberry Pis and tablets can be used as micro-servers to implement offline Learning Management Systems (LMS). Despite their potential, especially for low-income countries, such as Tanzania, no research is available detailing the affordances of these devices for supporting LMS features. This study investigated the suitability of various low-cost micro-servers for deploying LMSs. It compared the performance of the Raspberry Pi, Android tablet, and Chromebook in terms of LMS benchmarking, response time, and resource utilisation. Results showed all devices had sufficient hardware resources to support the LMS, however, software stacks, I/O performance, and platform optimisations affected the micro-servers' performance. The Chromebook had the best performance in terms of response time, followed by the Raspberry Pi and tablets. In terms of cost, the Raspberry PI was the cheapest option. The installation process for tablets was more cumbersome than the other devices, meaning the devices with better tooling and a more conventional software stack were a better option for deploying offline micro-servers.
