Year: 2023
Type: review
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Nowadays, education is seen as the most significant activity in our lives, most especially technical and vocational education for self-reliance. Even if there are various ways to learn, not all of them are interesting. But, because of technology advancement, education is now more appealing and fascinating. Virtual reality and augmented reality, which merge the actual world with the virtual world, are some of the most promising technologies in the educational industry. "METAVERSE" is the name of this virtual environment. We can communicate with individuals in a virtual setting using avatars that are lifelike. The usage of metaverse technology in some literary works has made learning more alluring than watching people on a screen. In this study, the researcher employed systematic literature reviews using the PRISMA flowchartr. PRISMA is an acronym for systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and it is a flowchart to learn more about the potential, efficacy, and benefits and drawbacks of learning technical and vocational education in the metaverse. The research leads us to the conclusion that the metaverse is a successful teaching tool. Because learning technical and vocational education in the metaverse has several benefits, including aiding in the visualization of materials and making learning more participatory, simple, and enjoyable for students of technical and vocational education, it is also helpful for teachers of vocational and technical education. There are significant restrictions, though, such the price of the hardware required to host the metaverse. Consequently, there are greater benefits to adopting the metaverse as a learning tool in technical and vocational education. Future work is required to make the most of the metaverse`s benefits and address its drawbacks as a learning platform.
