| Abstract | ||
| This study focuses on the role of virtual groups and the development of self-protection during the Corona pandemic (COVID-19). This study applies both descriptive and analytical approaches; it uses social survey as a method for collecting social data through electronic questionnaires. Moreover, it is applied on students who are members in virtual groups in the College of Arts and Social Science, Sultan Qaboos University, during the period from March 2021 until May 2021. The results show a statistically significant correlation between the roles of virtual groups and the tools they use to develop self-protection during the Corona pandemic. Finally, the virtual groups roles are not enough to develop self-protection during the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). | ||
