  • This paper reports the findings of research into the effect of flow experience and internet addiction on e-learning participation. The total number of access, playing time of contents and lag time (time between content upload and first access) were investigated as e-learning participation by analyzing web log data. The paper also examines the relationship between academic achievement and e-learning participation. The results suggest that the flow experience significantly correlates with all variables related with e-learning participation and internet addiction significantly correlates with lag time. It is found that female students significantly access more, longer and have shorter lag time than their male counterparts. It also suggest total number of access, lag time and gender difference have significant effect on academic achievement.
