Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, distance learning has not only gained world-wide acceptance, but in a high majority of cases, it has proved to be the only viable option. Virtually all such learning is occurring in two-dimension (2D) on a computer screen, tablet, or smartphone.
The up-and-coming metaverse and the technologies it uses including XR/AI/IoT/Blockchain will have the power to completely reshape the future learning experience with its three-dimension (3D) virtual platform. It is a vast online realm where people can engage through digital avatars. When used for a classroom, students around the world can interact as if they were situated physically next to each other and their instructors using virtual reality (VR) headsets. The metaverse is a hypothesized 3D environment, through personal computing, smartphones, and virtual augmented reality headsets, combining both virtual and physical spaces. It also implements social media elements such as avatar identity, and content creation.
The metaverse is the container or umbrella if you may, which is bringing together technologies that essentially are able to create a virtual-custom environment where we can meet virtually for business, education, social, entertainment, any time any place anywhere. Apollos University is presently diversifying regarding its product offerings and embracing the metaverse concept. Apollos has been testing and utilizing metaverse technologies within its own business operations/collaborations with respect to its global workforce, and the results are mind-blowing. Working and learning in an online 3d immersive environment has resulted in tremendous improvement in employee engagement, learning, experience, and productivity.
