The purpose of study was to investigate students’ attitudes towards academic group learning in computer training
courses in education department at a university in Jordan as well as the effect of age, gender, and major on
students’ attitudes towards academic group learning. The participants in this study were 183 undergraduate and
graduate students who were enrolled in on-campus educational technology courses at a public Jordanian
university over two semesters. Cross-sectional survey design was selected in the current study. The
questionnaires, which were designed to measure students’ attitudes toward academic group learning, were
distributed and collected at the end of the semesters. The analysis of students’ responses showed that the students
had positive attitudes toward academic group learning. In addition, students’ attitudes towards academic group
learning were not different accordance with students’ gender and age. However, students’ responses for one of
the scales of their attitudes toward group learning were different accordance with students’ major, where
computer science and computer engineering students showed more favorable attitudes towards academic group
learning compared to education students. The results were useful in providing faculty members empirical data
regarding students’ preferred teaching methods that they can employ in their educational practice.
