Abstract

In this paper, we examine the impact of the pandemic on university students in Jordan, focusing on their digital citizenship and attitudes towards distance learning. A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online survey, with 780 participants. The findings reveal that distance learning is widely applicable, with 89.87% of students utilizing live online learning content. The majority of students exhibit responsible online behavior, respecting others and refraining from bullying. They also actively engage in digital activities, express their opinions, and share their expertise online. Additionally, many students use technology for legitimate purchases during the pandemic. However, 95% of participants are aware of the potential health issues caused by excessive digital device use. Finally, it is shown that the university students in Jordan demonstrate good knowledge and positive attitudes towards digital citizenship, highlighting the importance of digital literacy and responsible online behavior in the face of the COVID-19 crisis.
