Regarding use by teachers of the formation offer in the use of Moddle in teaching, statistical difference (p<0,05) between genres was stressed, women being the ones who less use it. Regarding skills on handling the Moodle, statistical difference (p<0,05) between genres was stressed, women being the ones bearing more ability.
