The average score of the attitude towards using eLearning on social network site was positive (4.23 out of 6, SD=1.10). The findings confirmed that the most popular among social network sites was Facebook. It also found a statistically significant difference between genders’ attitude, where by the female attitude scored higher than male, and both being positive. The highest attitude earned from the survey concluding students believed that social networks support eLearning potential (4.31 out of 6, SD=1.30).
