Abstract: Transformation to the digital system has made life easier, and the acceptance of the e-learning system in the academic life of students is a fact. Therefore, many educational organizations use the e-learning environment for teaching-learning activities. The present study has been conducted to evaluate the awareness of the undergraduate students to ethics and to determine if there is a difference according to gender and academic level variables when using an e-learning system at Al-Balqa Applied University in Jordan. A self-questionnaire has been designed to measure the participant's awareness of ethics. It consists of 20 items classified in three ethical categories; Intellectual property rights, vandalism and Privacy. The results show that the awareness of students is low in all three categories regarding their commitment to the ethical issues when using an e-learning system. Result also show that there are no significant differences between undergraduate students' gender and academic level related to the awareness of ethical issues. Therefore, undergraduate students should be fully knowledgeable about ethical issues to avoid unethical behavior while using of the e-learning system.
