“…There are also some applications related to cultural heritage education [127]. The application of VR in higher education was enthusiastically received by students [128]. Simultaneously, the hardware requirements and the enormous costs associated with this technology make it difficult to use VR in education on a mass scale.…”

Surprisingly, distance education is quite an old concept. Its origins date back to the first correspondence-based course, which took place via the postal service in Boston, USA, in the 18th century. Rapid technological developments, especially in video and audio streaming, have increased the availability of such courses and moved learning into the virtual world. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are witnessing an accelerated revolution in the learning process, as nearly all forms of education have been shifted online. Will this have a destructive effect on the human psyche? Is humanity sufficiently aware and ready for such a dramatic change? Will we return to physical in-classroom studies, or is remote distance education set to become the new norm? In particular, in medicine, computer science, fine arts, or architectural design, such a rapid change in the way students learn can be quite challenging. In this paper, we provide an overview of the history of distance learning, taking into account teachers’ and students’ points of view in both secondary and higher education.

“…Metacosmic deep immersion experience provides learning immersion and presence for gamification education and learning. The core feature of Metaverse is immersion experience (Liu, 2021b ). Teachers, students, parents and other personnel can create their own personalized learning space in Metaverse, and start unique and personalized immersion experience learning.…”

“…Web teaching is simple and monotonous, and it is difficult to arouse students’ enthusiasm. The plane interaction is boring and students’ sense of participation is not strong (Zegan, 2022 ); The separation of time and space between teaching and learning is even less interactive, and the existing curriculum resources are difficult to meet the dynamic individualized learning needs of students (Wang Dongdong et al, 2020 ); Lack of skills training environment, lack of practice links (Liu, 2021a ), “emphasis on teaching, neglect of practice”, lack of interaction between teachers and students (Qiliang et al, 2014 ), real-time interaction is difficult and the experience is poor, and the sense of presence and immersion compared with offline classroom can’t be formed (Lili et al, 2022 ), which makes it difficult to bring students a sense of experience and presence. Art teaching should be combined with students’ interactive experience, emphasizing the effectiveness of learning.…”

Metaverse is a digital world created by human beings according to the physical world. Its deep integration of virtual and real features has created a new opportunity for the innovative development of game teaching in art design courses in colleges and universities under the epidemic situation. In the field of art design, the investigation and research on the learning mode of its courses show that traditional teaching can hardly bring good experience to students, which is manifested in the following aspects: the lack of “presence” in online learning caused by epidemic situation, resulting in weak display of teaching effect, and unreasonable organization of group learning in the course. Therefore, in view of these problems, this paper puts forward three paths about the innovative application of art design courses by using the teaching strategy of Xirang games, namely, interaction on the same screen and presence experience, interaction between real individuals and virtual images, and division of cooperative learning interest groups. At last, by using the research methods of semi-structured interview, eye movement experiment and scale, it is concluded that virtual game learning plays an active role in promoting the teaching reform in colleges and universities, stimulating learners to develop higher-order thinking abilities such as creativity and criticism, solving the problems of traditional teaching, and promoting learners to move from “outside the teaching scene” to “inside the teaching scene” and from “outside the knowledge” to “inside the knowledge”, which leads to a new teaching direction for the future teaching mode.

“…Τέλος, αναφορικά με τους τρεις παράγοντες που ενδιαφέρουν το παρόν άρθρο, διαπιστώθηκε πως, στις περισσότερες περιπτώσεις, οι ερευνητές ανέφεραν ότι τόσο η εμβύθιση όσο η παρουσία και η αλληλεπίδραση ήταν αυξημένες και μάλιστα είχαν θετική επίπτωση στην απόκτηση γνώσεων ή/και δεξιοτήτων (ενδεικτικά, Allcoat & von Mühlenen, 2018;Krassmann et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2019;Zikky et al, 2018).…”

“…Η απάντηση βρίσκεται στην ποιότητα των μαθησιακών εμπειριών που δίνει η ΕΠ και που οφείλονται στην εμβύθιση, την παρουσία και την αλληλεπίδραση, που είναι μεταξύ των βασικών χαρακτηριστικών της ΕΠ, όπως αναλύθηκε σε προηγούμενη ενότητα. Μάλιστα, από τη βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση φάνηκε ότι πράγματι οι παράγοντες αυτοί παίζουν σημαντικό ρόλο στην επίτευξη ικανοποιητικών μαθησιακών αποτελεσμάτων (ενδεικτικά Krassmann et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2019;Zikky et al, 2018). Από την άλλη, αυτοί οι παράγοντες δεν είναι ιδιαίτερα τονισμένοι στην ΕξΑΕ (Chen, 2018;El Kabtane et al, 2020).…”

Η Εικονική Πραγματικότητα έχει βρει πεδίο εφαρμογής στα περισσότερα γνωστικά αντικείμενα και βαθμίδες της εκπαίδευσης, με θετικά αποτελέσματα. Στη βιβλιογραφία έχουν εντοπιστεί διάφορα χαρακτηριστικά της που θεωρούνται σημαντικά, με κυριότερα την εμβύθιση, την παρουσία και την αλληλεπίδραση. Στην παρούσα εργασία επιχειρείται ο ακριβής προσδιορισμός αυτών των χαρακτηριστικών και η εξέταση της σχέσης τους με την εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευση. Από τη σχετική βιβλιογραφία φαίνεται ότι έχουν θετική επίδραση σε αυτήν τη μορφή εκπαίδευσης και συμβάλλουν στην επίτευξη επικοινωνίας που προσομοιάζει τη δια ζώσης. Γενικότερα, συνεισφέρουν στην παροχή υψηλής ποιότητας μαθησιακών εμπειριών σε έναν ευρύ πληθυσμό εκπαιδευόμενων, οι οποίοι δεν βρίσκονται με φυσική παρουσία στον ίδιο χώρο. Συμπερασματικά, η πλήρης αξιοποίηση της εμβύθισης, της παρουσίας και της αλληλεπίδρασης, μπορεί να οδηγήσει στη δημιουργία νεών μοντέλων εξ αποστάσεως διδασκαλίας που στηρίζονται στην Εικονική Πραγματικότητα.
