Specifically, we conducted a thorough descriptive examination of various facets within the dataset of 956 bibliographic records, obtained through a systematic literature search. We presented descriptive insights from this scientific literature at multiple levels, including the article (e.g., most frequent words, important themes, trends of keywords), journal (most productive, and most cited journals), affiliation (most productive affiliations), and country (most productive, and most cited countries) levels. Furthermore, we explored the conceptual, intellectual, and social structures of this field of study, represented by the co-occurrence network, co-word network, and collaboration network, respectively. These analyses collectively painted a comprehensive picture of the research landscape within the realm of immersive technologies in health professions education. This study not only contributes to the identification of trends and gaps in the literature but also provides actionable insights for educators, researchers, and policymakers regarding influential players, resource allocation, and global collaboration.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100320,"journal":{"name":"Computers & Education: X Reality","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100051"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949678024000011/pdfft?md5=3482d2d83e6fa2d2e33384772fcc2ce8&pid=1-s2.0-S2949678024000011-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139433436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably serious games and Games-Based Learning (GBL) have received high levels of attention from educationalists due to being motivational, novel learning approaches.

The second study will outline the evaluation of the developed game being placed in a module as a formative assessment tool to assist learners to revise for their formal class test. Study one showed that acceptability of the game was high with 61 participants completing an acceptability/content integration questionnaire. The game was designed to consolidate knowledge on rudimentary and advanced programming concepts, data structures and algorithms. 48 participants evaluated the game in study two with the results generally indicating that they enjoyed playing the game as a revision alternative with 14% of participants rating it as very effective and 51% of participants as effective for allowing them to prepare for their class test.

Various forms of teaching benefit from the sense of presence, wherein users feel fully engaged in the virtual environment. Research indicates that the presence experienced in VR environments enhances user satisfaction, reduces errors during tasks, and promotes more enduring training effects. Since presence is a subjective phenomenon, it is expected to be influenced by user demographics, cognitive abilities, personality traits, interests, and emotions. In this systematic literature review, we examined scientific articles using Google Scholar to identify significant influences of these user factors on presence. Employing the PRISMA methodology, we analyzed a total of 33 articles that addressed our research question. The results indicate that only a subset of the anticipated factors significantly affect presence. These factors include the user's level of interest in the subject being experienced, and any mental disorders associated with it. Additionally, factors such as the user's ability to perceive the spatial qualities of the virtual environment, their disposition toward kindness and generosity, and their inclination to engage with objects—such as media products—affect presence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100320,"journal":{"name":"Computers & Education: X Reality","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100064"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S294967802400014X/pdfft?md5=7f7e6c5b5629a273242ae17164f71c88&pid=1-s2.0-S294967802400014X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140905832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Education has transitioned from the bricks-and-mortar, teacher fronted, and textbook-based teaching to out-of-class, student-centered, and inquiry-based learning. Since 2020, emerging technologies such as the Metaverse and artificial intelligence have shown great potential in expanding learning opportunities, ranging from the location of learning and teaching, the student-teacher machine interactions, to different modes of instruction and learning. In particular, the Metaverse has the power to transform the way peer feedback is provided, which is an essential aspect of effective education. This position paper aims to shed some light on the intersection of peer feedback and the Metaverse. It starts with a review of the classic sociocultural learning theory and the historical use of technology to support peer feedback, followed by an introduction to the definition and features of the Metaverse technology. Then, the paper proposes a tentative model about how the Metaverse can be utilized to facilitate peer feedback. It ends with important questions for educators and learners to contemplate in order to make the most of this new technology in improving the provision and uptake of peer feedback.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100320,"journal":{"name":"Computers & Education: X Reality","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100056"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949678024000060/pdfft?md5=92fc63d67a28f3b259cb0fab0cf51733&pid=1-s2.0-S2949678024000060-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140030280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Addressing this research gap, the present study conducted a systematic review of vocabulary learning within AR and VR gamification context. Following the predefined inclusion criteria and literature selection process outlined by the PRISMA framework, 23 articles were selected from a pool of 97 studies for final analysis. The major findings revealed that: (1) Form and meaning of vocabulary took precedence in gamified AR-assisted vocabulary learning or VR-assisted vocabulary learning, adopting intentional learning as the primary approach; (2) A significant majority of studies employed researcher-coined vocabulary tests as the measurements for assessing vocabulary knowledge, with translation, multiple-choice questions, and word-matching serving as the most common tasks; (3) The reviewed studies demonstrated that gamified AR and VR both prioritize interactivity as the core digital affordance in the context of vocabulary learning. Gamified AR owned unique features, including bridging reality and virtuality, promoting collaborative learning, and visualizing content, while gamified VR was more inclined toward immersion and facilitating self-regulated learning; (4) Three aspects of problems, namely technology-related, student-related, and teacher-related, emerged with the application of gamified AR or VR.

Using open and axial coding, we find that a survey of perceptions or review of the literature was most often made, followed by the study of technical and pedagogical interventions. VR followed by MR was noted the most in the reviewed studies and surprisingly no mention of AR in the silo was made. The use of AI with XReality was mostly done to provide actionable insight, followed by insight and control. The analysis of studies against the conceptual framework E3XReality suggested that current work is largely at the education state and more work is needed to transition to a more sophisticated state of Eudaimonia. Further, several challenges were obtained from the 29 reviewed studies.
