It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Motivation -- The purpose of this paper is to analyse how students experience different modalities in online ICT learning. The general aim is to develop a system that maps learning activities within their own context to different modalities. Research approach -- A first study was conducted in which about 30 students were asked to view three online presentations on three different topics and presented in three different modalities. After each presentation they were asked to evaluate the experience in a questionnaire.. Findings/Design -- Despite the fact that no significant differences were found on how students experience different modalities, there are indications that the results would be different with a larger control group Research limitations/Implications -- Only Italian university students whose native language is not English participates in the study. This might influence the results. We intend to repeat this study with other student populations and for other learning domains. Originality/Value -- E-learning today comes in different modalities. The choice for a certain modality nowadays is often technology or teacher driven. In this research we want to investigate e-learning from a user-centred perspective to discover in what situations what modalities enhance the learning experience of students most.
