Metaverse: The Next Frontier in Education
The metaverse, the next evolution of social communication and collaboration, is on the horizon. While it doesn't exist yet, its potential in education is being explored. A group of leading virtual and extended reality (XR) educators has published a report, 'An Introduction to Learning In the Metaverse', to guide educators through this new frontier.
The report, published by Meridian Treehouse, serves as an introductory guide to XR and its potential in learning. It warns educators not to overestimate the metaverse's capabilities and encourages them to find creative ways to supplement traditional learning experiences.
The metaverse is envisioned as a network of interconnected 3D virtual worlds. Its full realization is still in the works, with the main technologies creating its foundation already in place. Collaboration on open-access research is crucial for its successful evolution, but no specific organization has been identified in German search results as developing guidelines for its use in education.
The metaverse offers great potential for educators to provide new learning experiences when used correctly. However, it must be inclusive and equitable, with considerations for accessibility and affordability of hardware. As the blueprint for metaverse education is still being designed, educators are encouraged to stay informed and adapt creatively to this emerging landscape.
