Educational institutions worldwide are using online learning to provide students with continued education during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main purpose of this paper was to ascertain how facilitating conditions, social media, and ease of use, affect students’ perception towards online learning. During this pandemic, secondary school students were required to participate in full-time online learning. This study included 350 students from three regions in Jordan as a sample, and the results generated from the survey data were analyzed. Policy implications were established in this study to provide guidance to government agencies and schools on how to improve the delivery of online learning. Prospective research paths for future online learning research were suggested as well.
