Abstract

La educación necesita una transformación profunda. Las aulas tradicionales se han convertido en un espacio en el que el aprendizaje se ha vuelto rutinario y con poco interés genuino por aprender. El metaverso permite a los estudiantes tener experiencias inmersivas y con mucho significado. Se realizó una revisión de la literatura en la que específicamente se abordó temas relacionados con la educación, tecnologías utilizadas, las ventajas y desventajas de los avatares o gemelos digitales que los estudiantes crean para generar su identidad cuando interactúan en el metaverso. Se concluye que es necesario que los sistemas educativos transiten hacia las tecnologías educativas emergentes para transformar la educación.
