Why the Educational Metaverse Is Not All About Virtual Reality Apps (2023)
Journal Article
Gordon, N., Brayshaw, M., Kambili-Mzembe, F., & Al Jaber, T. (2023). Why the Educational Metaverse Is Not All About Virtual Reality Apps. Lecture notes in computer science, 14041 LNCS, 22-32. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-34550-0_2

This paper explores how the Metaverse can be used in the context of learning and collaboration. In it we seek to dispel the story that the Metaverse is just another synonym for Virtual Reality and future technology. Instead we will argue that the Met...
