Abstract

The future of education in smart cities is connected with the metaverse and eXtended Reality (XR) applications. Educators know so little or nothing about helpful digital learning opportunities because they never heard about them during their pedagogic studies. To rapidly change this, European educational institutions join forces in the Erasmus + XR4Ped project to provide answers to questions and help foster digitisation in higher education in general and promote XR-based Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and the combination and further extension of both to Extended Reality (XR) immersive learning in particular. This poster will present the results of the anonymous data provided through a qualitative online questionnaire, highlighting the differences of XR technologies’ awareness in Europe.
