Abstract

The current study aimed to assess the extent of optimism among Jadara University students about their expected results through the distance learning experience. The descriptive-analytical method was applied to collect data. The researchers administered a questionnaire of (18) statements to a sample of (n = 363) students from the study population (n = 4993). The data were processed through the Statistical Analysis Program for Social Sciences (SPSS), and the validity and reliability of the measure were verified. Arithmetic means, standard deviations, and two-way analysis of variance were computed. The results showed that Jadara University students are moderately optimistic about their expected results through the distance learning experience. The study concluded that there are statistically significant differences between the averages of the respondents due to the variable of the school year, where the third- and fourth-year students showed higher responses. And there are no statistically significant differences for the gender variable. The study suggested holding motivational courses for all university students, improving the teaching plan, and diversifying teaching strategies.
