The educational model with focus on competency formation, promoted at the beginning of the XXI century and which has taken a very important role in the teaching-learning process in educational institutions of all educational levels, it establishes that for the development of the human being education must be integral. Competency-based education is oriented towards the generation of skills in the student, therefore, the evaluation should focus on these, particularly those that have to do with abilities to identify, project, solve problems and make decisions. The rubrics of competency evaluation are a tool that allows to obtain evidence of the acquisition of these and application of knowledge outside the classroom. This implies a change in the university’s scenario, both for the teachers, as well as for the students, who must assume new functions, roles and tasks to achieve a learning based on generic and specific competences. In this work a proposal of rubrics for the evaluation by Physics Competences in the university area is presented, specifically, to evaluate the development of laboratory practices. With this work, it is intended to introduce new assessment methods and identify opportunities to develop skills and evaluate learning through indicators of progress. In this first phase of the project, a laboratory practice has been designed and together the evaluation rubric has been developed, applied to students of Physical Foundations of Informatics in the Degree of Computer Engineering of the Higher Polytechnic School of the University of Castilla -La Mancha (UCLM),located on the university campus of Albacete
