商品描述

Accompanying The Metaverse: A Critical Introduction in CRC Press' new The Metaverse Series, this book explores the ways in which the Metaverse can be used for education and learning, as well as how it is different from virtual reality (VR) application development. For example, institutions and tutors can make use of the Metaverse space to represent themselves in it or create their own content and share experiences, whilst students can access a wider range of material, learn within appropriate settings and create content to support their own and others' learning.

Key Features:

- Provides practical advice from the authors' collective three decades of work and experience in VR and Metaverse learning and education.
- Examines different approaches to learning that are relevant in a VR and Metaverse context, including theoretical and practical approaches to pedagogy.
- Suggests different approaches to learning that might be used and explores learning in practice in the metaverse - from early versions such as computer-supported collaborative learning and action learning through to more recent practices such as games and gamification and the use of problem-based learning in virtual worlds.
- Examines a number of advantages of learning in the metaverse such as the opportunity to be inclusive towards different approaches to learning, the value of affordances, peer-to-peer learning and genres of participation.

This book is aimed primarily at practitioners in the learning and education field, and those who set policy and commission work. It may also be of interest to parents, managers, other interested professionals, students, researchers and lay readers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書隨著CRC Press新出版的《The Metaverse: A Critical Introduction》一同推出，探討了元宇宙在教育和學習中的應用方式，以及其與虛擬實境（VR）應用開發的不同之處。例如，機構和導師可以利用元宇宙空間來表現自己或創建自己的內容並分享經驗，而學生則可以接觸到更廣泛的資料，在適當的環境中學習，並創建內容以支持自己和他人的學習。

主要特色：
- 提供來自作者在VR和元宇宙學習及教育領域三十年工作和經驗的實用建議。
- 檢視在VR和元宇宙背景下相關的不同學習方法，包括理論和實踐的教學法。
- 建議可能使用的不同學習方法，並探索在元宇宙中的實踐學習——從早期版本如計算機支持的協作學習和行動學習，到最近的實踐如遊戲和遊戲化，以及在虛擬世界中使用問題導向學習。
- 檢視在元宇宙中學習的多項優勢，例如對不同學習方法的包容性、可用性的價值、同儕學習和參與類型。

本書主要針對學習和教育領域的從業者，以及制定政策和委託工作的相關人士。對於家長、管理者、其他相關專業人士、學生、研究者和一般讀者也可能具有興趣。
