There is growing interest in the potential applications of Metaverse technology in education, including in distance education. Some studies suggest that Metaverse has the potential to enhance the learning experience through immersive and interactive experiences, while other studies also highlight the potential challenges such as ethics and adoption barriers. Overall, it seems that Metaverse technology is an area of active research and development, and it may offer new opportunities to enhance the learning experience in higher education.
