The use of information technologies to Support learning is an important study area for both teaching experts and HCI researchers aiming to produce efficacious e-learning systems allowing teachers, tutors and students to carry out their activities in a satisfactory and enjoyable manner. The system the user will interact with must therefore be designed not only on the basis of the classic usability principles but also of those aspects that affect the overall user experience. Aim of the present study is to see how individual characteristics of cognitive and above all motivational type affect learning while using an e-learning system, and to assess their impact on the overall e-learning user experience.

Abstract
The use of information technologies to Support learning is an important study area for both teaching experts and HCI researchers aiming to produce efficacious e-learning systems allowing teachers, tutors and students to carry out their activities in a satisfactory and enjoyable manner. The system the user will interact with must therefore be designed not only on the basis of the classic usability principles but also of those aspects that affect the overall user experience. Aim of the present study is to see how individual characteristics of cognitive and above all motivational type affect learning while using an e-learning system, and to assess their impact on the overall e-learning user experience.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
