Abstract

This study aimed to identify the differences in the degree of awareness of graduate students in Jordanian universities of the importance of using IoT technology in the educational process based on the variable (university classification, academic level, and faculty classification). This study was conducted during the second semester of the academic year 2022-2021 AD. The descriptive survey method was used, and the study tool (the questionnaire) consisted of (54) items. It was divided into four categories (the concept of IoT technology, uses of IoT technology, benefits of IoT technology, and challenges of IoT technology). The study sample consisted of (439) male and female graduate students in Jordanian universities, who were chosen randomly. The results of the study showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the degree of students’ awareness due to the university classification variable, and that there were statistically significant differences due to the academic level variable in favor of the Master’s stage, as well as the presence of statistically significant differences due to the faculty classification and in favor of the humanities faculties.
