The main goal of this research is to underline the role of students' openness in forming learning communities in the online environment, outside class hours, using movie as a learning resource. The participants were formed by 58 women students in the second year, of three study programs: Pedagogy of Primary and Preschool Education, Special Education, and Psychology, out of whom 46.6% expressed their interest in taking part in building a learning community, while the rest of 53.4%, denied. To make visible the possible differences between the two groups and whether the aspects concerning the level of openness and adaptation to the academic life influence the decision of participating in the study, we have used two instruments who measures the level of openness and the level of student adaptation to environment and academic requests. The results for the comparative analysis reflect differences between the openness towards intellect and the level of adaptation to academic life. The means are higher for the students wanting to take part in the learning community. The study can be seen as a starting point in building a student profile for future participants to online learning communities where movie is a learning resource.
