“…In such space they can communicate and exchange data with each other using textual chat or real-time voice chat tools (Delwiche, 2006). It has been claimed that such environments offer the possibility of an immersive experience for learners through the use of realistic 3D graphics, simulations of real world physics, and binaural sound systems (Delwiche, 2006;Gee, 2003;Grasser, Pearson, Lu, & Jeon, 2005;Libbon, 2004).…”

This study aims to enhance our holistic understanding of 3D virtual worlds by providing a detailed analysis of the research methods and research trends related to the research of 3D virtual worlds for educational environments. Data was collected by searching for the ubiquitous term, "virtual world," from databases. Snowball sampling was also employed. The researchers critically analyzed the literature as data focusing on how virtual worlds were applied in individual studies, what research methods were used, and what disciplines were examined in the studies. The results indicate that virtual worlds are mainly used for the simulation of space, and they are used in different ways depending on discipline and temporal scope. Virtual worlds are increasingly being used in blended learning contexts. While descriptive research methods were most used in research studies on the educational applications of virtual worlds, experimental approaches are increasingly being used by researchers. Based on these results, this study suggests an appropriate research direction for the application of virtual worlds in educational contexts in the future.
