Sumario:[EN] Computer assisted language learning (CALL) is a field of research with more than half a century of tradition that combines language learning and technology (Chapelle, 2001; 2003; Dudeney, 2007). Nowadays there are many on-line foreign language courses in the Internet. The present study aims at analyzing the effectiveness of these on line self-learning courses. With this aim, we selected a group of students enrolled in two on-line courses of Catalan and English, respectively, i.e. the experimental group, and compared their results with those of another group of students of English and Catalan, who followed on site language lessons, i.e. the control group. The results obtained show that the students from the experimental group improved their writing skills while the control group improved their oral ones. Finally, all students answered a questionnaire to evaluate the motivation and satisfaction generated by this experiment. Findings show that the experimental group was more satisfied and motivated to follow with selflearning activities than the control group.
