In the Light of the Spread of Covid19, What is the Role of the University Institutions in Applying the "Concept Change Model"
for Students and Society

The invasion of Coronavirus showed a challenge to human existence caused intellectual approaches among human beings to reject extremism and resort to moderation, and autism to confront the threat to their life. The threat of this disease has contributed in reviewing of the ways of understanding the wrong ideas

prevailing societies, in particular our society, such as the methods of prevention and hygiene and the nature of social interaction such as the exchange of kisses and the performance of peace and handshake and other types and societal customs.

Since the university institutions are the environment that used to embrace such diverse ideas, cultures and concepts that reflect the historical stage the society is going through, one of these models that scientific institutions should focus on is the "concept change model", which is a cognitive model aimed at changing the wrong understanding of student and introduce new concepts and methods presented by the teacher to the students and used by specialists in setting vocabulary for the students of different university stages...Among the most important concepts and ideas that are no longer compatible with the aspirations of the future and imposed on us by the circumstances of the spread of the Covid19 epidemic, we can summarize it as follows:

1. Changing teaching concepts: We note the required change in the way computers and smartphones are used, and the need to transform them into educational tools, after the distance learning model has been proposed and approved by educational institutions. The lecturers and students are both rely on themselves and invest the time given by Covid19.

2. Changing health concepts: We all have seen the efforts that research centres and laboratories are making in rearranging their papers and ideas, modifying their concepts, and uniting the efforts of scientists in countries where the world did not expect to allow their scientists to participate in scientific research endeavours to reach treatments or vaccines. Mankind is helping to confront the deadly threat of Covid19, which is led by the best scientists and talents of the earth, and that millions of human beings are waiting for them to get more from the danger that threatens their existence.

3. Changing security concepts: It has become evident that the weapon that countries are competing with, has stood helpless in front of a virus that does not know when and how it can move to kill. It has also become clear that the most dangerous weapon in our societies is the food. Food security is what countries must work on, especially those that have the ingredients to achieve food security for their societies.
