摘要:Social networks sites have a considerable impact on all our life aspects, especially the educational sector.

In addition to two added factors (lecturer support, and student-related factors) as an extension. The study was conducted in (6) Jordanian universities, where (381) questionnaires were returned from the study sample with a response rate of (95%) from the total questionnaires that were distributed online. The results showed that (Performance expectancy, Social influence, Effort expectancy, Habit, lecturer support, and student-related factors) have a positive impact on the actual usage of social networks sites for educational purposes in Jordanian universities, while the factors (Facilitating condition and Hedonic motivation) don’t support their hypotheses).
