Abstract

The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) highlighted the importance of information technologies in education and their usefulness, adding value through the implementation of disruptive ICTs such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), collectively forming the metaverse. This research analyzes the metaverse as an educational tool and its impacts on the student's formative process. Using a documentary design and WoS and Scopus databases, it aims to present the current status of this topic to the educational community, shaping the future of virtual learning environments. Although in a preliminary exploratory phase, the study reviews key scientific contributions to establish solid theoretical foundations and encourage its adoption as a critical topic.
