Sumario:[EN] The laboratory learning activities can constitute a suitable educational framework for generic competencies development such as application and practical thinking, analysis and solving problem, teamwork and leadership, etc. For this reason, a key element to evaluate its acquisition and to define the control points can be the assessment of laboratory work, provided that it goes beyond the only manipulative skills or the influence on theoretical knowledge acquisition. It requires a deep methodological change, both concerning its purpose, organization and design and used assessment tools. In this context, to incorporate critical reflection activities to laboratory reports can provide a valuable information. The results of analysis and encoding of students’ reflections from these activities in a 1st course of basic chemistry in Science and Food Technology studies have been discussed in this communication. From these results, several guidelines for development and assessment of generic competencies by means of laboratory work activities have been proposed
