Internationell läxforskning visar ett positivt samband mellan läxläsning och resultat och många lärare bekräftar detta samband. Denna undersökning bygger på föreställningen att graden av läxläsning i gymnasiematematik påverkas negativt av bristande tillgång till läxhjälp vilket i sin tur påverkar resultatet negativt. Syftet med denna studie är därför undersöka i vilken omfattning efterlyser gymnasieelever hjälp med hemläxor i matematik och om eleverna kan tänka sig ta emot den hjälpen över Internet. Resultat visar att en majoritet av elever kan tänka sig att aktivt söka löpande läxhjälp över ett bemannade Internet forum och ännu fler efterlyser samma hjälp inför olika skolprov. Enbart en försvinnande liten del av eleverna utnyttjar läxhjälp som deras skolor erbjuder idag.

De huvudsakliga frågeställningarna var: Vad har användare för förväntningar på tjänsten samt Vilka delar av webbapplikationen behöver förbättras? Ett tänka-högt protokoll användes där sex försökspersoner fick prova på att använda tjänsten via en dator och samtidigt resonera om applikationen. Resultaten visar att försökspersonerna förväntade sig en enkel, icke tidsödande tjänst, där de skulle behöva ange i stort sett samma uppgifter för att beställa en taxi via Internet som via telefon.
