“…Competence-based education (CBE) is a leading paradigm for educational reform in the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector, in which the competences (e.g., knowledge and skills) needed in later vocational practice form the foundation for curriculum development rather than the general academic subjects ( Koenen et al, 2015 ; Wijnia et al, 2016 ; Antonietti et al, 2022 ). In most cases, VET is built upon the alternation between theory and practice.…”

The declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic forced humanity to rethink how we teach and learn. The metaverse, a 3D digital space mixed with the real world and the virtual world, has been heralded as a trend of future education with great potential. However, as an emerging item, rarely did the existing study discuss the metaverse from the perspective of education. In this paper, we first introduce the visions of the metaverse, including its origin, definitions, and shared features. Then, the metaverse in education is clearly defined, and a detailed framework of the metaverse in education is proposed, along with in-depth discussions of its features. In addition, four potential applications of the metaverse in education are described with reasons and cases: blended learning, language learning, competence-based education, and inclusive education. Moreover, challenges of the metaverse for educational purposes are also presented. Finally, a range of research topics related to the metaverse in education is proposed for future studies. We hope that, via this research paper, researchers with both computer science and educational technology backgrounds could have a clear vision of the metaverse in education and provide a stepping stone for future studies. We also expect more researchers interested in this topic can commence their studies inspired by this paper.

“…Perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness have improved students' interest in and intention to use technology in learning. TAM has been used in many previous studies, like YouTube as a learning resource [55], quality assessment of the students [56], AI-based review [57], special education teachers' [58], vocational education [53] and digital technology in education [59]. We have used the TPB framework to measure the respondent's attitudes.…”

Technology adoption is accepting, integrating, and using the latest innovative technologies in society. Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are changing the face of the industrial and service sectors. There is a need to change the traditional way of teaching by introducing the latest innovative methods. This study aims to measure the intention of adopting AI-based robots in the educational system of Indian universities. This study uses three theories technology acceptance model, the theory of planned behaviour, and the technology readiness index. Thirteen hypotheses are proposed for this study. The teachers and students survey Indian universities. This study also measures the users' attitudes and the impact on their intention. Nine hypotheses got accepted, and four hypotheses got rejected. This study will benefit the university administration as they will understand the importance of AI-based robots and their applications. These will also be helpful in a way that the students and teachers both are in favours of the adoption process.

“…In order to facilitate the connectivity between the different learning locations, several measures have been taken regarding the process of digitization of education. Training materials and digital tools have been created and offered to support the teaching and learning process (Antonietti et al, 2022). The innovation that universities can bring, for the regions in which they are located, is based on their cooperation with the local industry (Schlegel et al, 2022).…”

Changes in the labor market are due to changes in production processes. Automation and globalization lead to the need to update the skills of the workforce. Finding and accessing jobs is all the easier as people have a high level of education. In a globalized economy, maintaining a high level of competitiveness is a major challenge. Vocational education and training systems can provide the skills, knowledge and competencies needed for new jobs. Vocational education and training programs are thus solutions by which the lack of skills or skills gaps can be filled. For the period 2000-2020, the article presents the comparative situation of the share of the adult population with tertiary education attainment. Their participation in lifelong education and training programs is very important. The comparative situation of participation rate in education and training is also analyzed. The labor market can influence the areas that high school graduates can pursue in higher education. Thus, the article presents the distribution of tertiary education graduates according to field of education.
