This paper presents effects of an online homework management system (OHMS) on productivity in the learning process. An examination is made of student performance and perceptions with and without use of an OHMS in an undergraduate upper-level accounting course. Empirical evidence indicates that an OHMS does not increase student learning performance. Students indicated that they perceived their learning performance was enhanced due to use of the OHMS; however, this perception was not supported by the actual performance results. Online homework management systems offer benefits (e.g. timely, objective feedback) but these do not include enhanced learning performance. In addition to the measuring the effect of the OHMS, a gender analysis and other demographic analyses were done. Among those findings, males made significantly lower grades than females.
