Abstract: There is growing recognition that electronic student information systems support college administrations and enhance student performance. These systems must fulfill their user’s needs by understanding gender differences among users. This study analyzes gender variations concerning the utilization of online student information systems (SIS), with its central concern being how the dynamics of user experience (UX) are affected. A broad agreement is evident throughout the literature that gender is a crucial aspect when assessing human-computer interactions. Consequently, usability factors are brought into question, although there is some indication among researchers that too much weight is being applied. Study findings are gathered to represent the hedonic and pragmatic qualities of users, with clarifications of students’ perspectives deducted from qualitative methods, together with a UX examination made via Kuwait’s Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET) institute. Results suggest that none of the differing approaches and habits the two genders have toward UX should be considered as substantial, with the overall sample recording a perception of UX that is “slightly positive”. Furthermore, this research highlights difficulties with usability that developers may wish to take onboard for system upgrades.
