Abstract

Avatars in the educational metaverse are revolutionizing the learning process by providing interactive and effective learning experiences. These avatars enable students to engage in realistic scenarios, work in groups, and develop essential skills using adaptive and intelligent technologies. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the contribution of avatars to education. It investigated the use of avatars to enhance learning by offering individualized experiences and supporting collaborative group activities in virtual environments. It also analyzed the recent progress in artificial intelligence, especially natural language processing and generative models, which have significantly improved avatar capabilities. In addition, it reviewed their use in customized learning, contextual teaching, and virtual simulations to improve student participation and achievement. This study also highlighted issues impacting its implementation, including data security, ethical concerns, and limited infrastructure. The paper ends with implications and recommendations for future research in this field.

教育虚拟世界中的化身。
教育虚拟世界中的虚拟角色通过提供互动和有效的学习体验,正在彻底改变学习过程。这些虚拟角色使学生能够参与现实场景,在小组中工作,并使用自适应和智能技术开发基本技能。本综述的目的是评估虚拟角色对教育的贡献。它调查了虚拟角色的使用,通过提供个性化的体验和支持虚拟环境中的协作小组活动来增强学习。它还分析了人工智能的最新进展,特别是自然语言处理和生成模型,它们显著提高了虚拟角色的能力。此外,它回顾了它们在定制学习,情境教学和虚拟模拟中的应用,以提高学生的参与度和成就。该研究还强调了影响其实施的问题,包括数据安全、道德问题和有限的基础设施。文章最后对该领域未来的研究提出了启示和建议。
