Revolutionizing educational landscapes: A systematic review of Metaverse applications, paradigms and emerging technologies

Abstract

AbstractThis paper addresses the existing gap in the literature on Metaverse applications in education by providing a comprehensive analysis of associated paradigms, platforms, hardware, and software, which have not been systematically reviewed yet. Notably, this study is among the first, to the best of our knowledge, to introduce the pioneering concept of Meta-AI in education and propose its potential to revolutionize the educational landscape by synergistically combining generative AI technologies, such as ChatGPT, with Metaverse education. Through this in-depth examination, our research makes a significant contribution to the field, establishing a solid foundation for the development of effective Metaverse teaching applications and guiding future scholarly endeavours.
