Summary/Abstract: The aim of the present paper is to analyse the outcomes of a project based on telecollaboration, as the basic teaching tool, belonging to a blended learning approach to teaching, in terms of student satisfaction against the degree of novelty that such a method entangles. The research is based on the opinions expressed by the direct participants in the exchange, students in the second year of study from the previous academic year, and represents part of a greater analysis considering that the project is still unfolding and that a new series of students, whose opinions are yet to be measured, have meanwhile participated in it. The conclusions of the study can be summoned under the positive side and reflect the opinion of the majority of the subjects interrogated proving once again the appreciation that modern teaching methods and techniques enjoy nowadays among students.
