Therefore,all e-learning environments implement a module to collect such information. Nevertheless, theseraw data must be processed to perform e-learning analysis and to help teachers arrive at relevantdecisions for the teaching process. In this paper, UBUMonitor is presented, an open-source desktopapplication that downloads Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment)platform data, so that student activity and performance can be monitored. The application organizesand summarizes these data in various customizable charts for visual analysis. The general featuresand uses of UBUMonitor are described, as are some approaches to e-teaching improvements, throughreal case studies. These include the analysis of accesses per e-learning object, statistical analysis ofgrading e-activities, detection of e-learning object configuration errors, checking of teacher activity,and comparisons between online and blended learning profiles. As an open-source application,UBUMonitor was institutionally adopted as an official tool and validated with several groups ofteachers at the Teacher Training Institute of the University of Burgos.
