Abstract E-learning is characterized both by human-human interaction (between students, fellow students and teachers) and by human-machine interaction (between students and e-learning software) to support the learning process. Since several studies point out that men and women differ in their interaction with technology, we perform one-way and inter-individual factor ANOVA analyses to test the existence of significant differences in the assessment and use of e-learning activities by male and female students in the context of an online project between two European universities. As a result, there are few differences between male and female students in their use of e-learning and their motivation and satisfaction.
