The Changing Face of Education in the Immersive World of the Metaverse

Quotes

What I'm trying to get the whole higher education and workplace training and education universe to think about is how the Fortnite generation is now coming into higher education and into the workplace. We can take this generation and force them into the old ways but I have a feeling that the new ways are going to emerge and a lot of that is immersive. In an AR VR PC computer sort of way, it's socially kinesthetic gamified. If we can meet them where they're at, I think we're going to be more successful with training and also gain stronger and happier employees.
