Abstract

This study aimed to examine the degree to which faculty members at Yarmouk University control their online classes from the students' perspective and to explore the impact of variables such as gender, educational level, and specialization. The study sample consisted of 462 students, selected using a convenience sampling method. The study employed a descriptive survey method, and to achieve its objectives, a questionnaire consisting of 40 items was designed, covering three domains. The results revealed that the degree of control perceived by students regarding faculty members' management of their online classes was high. The study also found statistically significant differences at the significance level of (α = 0.05) in the mean scores of the sample members across all domains of the study tool, as well as in the overall score, attributed to gender (favoring males), educational level (favoring graduate students), and specialization (favoring scientific disciplines).
