Abstract
We show design, framework, process and assessment of an e-learning course and program on information competences. The course was the product of a strong collaboration between teacher and library staff. This collaboration promoted the acquisition of information and technology skill, use and group working. It promoted the students acquiring an attitude of cooperation and control of their own learning. The results were achieved across three evaluation systems: quantitative, qualitative and a global satisfaction test, in which every subject took part. The evaluation process resulted in determining strong points, weak points and proposals for improvement. The exercise of joint self-appraisal and shared responsibility was promoted.
