- © 2019 IEEE.Assuring and measuring how a competence is developed in an academic ambience is not an easy task. This work presents an analysis of how a group of people acknowledges and evaluates how a collaborative and interdisciplinary approach around a specific problematic situation helps to develop a group of competences. The measuring of a competence has two actors: the first is the designer of the activity to develop such competence and the second is the performer of the activity. This work focuses on the second actor. In such case, the problematic situation was the design of a 3D interactive virtual environment to help people learn a simple task such as changing a flat tire. This work presents a qualitative analysis of how a sample of 37 students acknowledge the development of four competences according to four levels. These levels vary from basic to high achiever. The results indicate that the students acknowledge a high level of developing such competences, which proves that these type of activities are an important approach to help not only students but people in general to assure that they have achieved a certain level of a competence.
