Learning in the world of new normal on virtual world under virtual learning environment

Abstract

          This academic article mainly represents the issues and the guidelines related to learning in the world of new normal on virtual world, which can be applied in learning management in the digital world. This style of learning is also considered a new dimension of learning management without borders. Learning for learners in the world of new normal usually refers to learning in a virtual world in which learners can learn, no matter where they are, in a virtual learning environment. This way of learning can be implemented by making use of existing technologies or platforms, which enable a new form of learning without borders. Learning in the virtual world requires learning technologies and innovations to support instruction activities in a virtual learning environment and learning through a virtual community. The said technologies and innovations include augmented reality technology, virtual reality technology, mixed reality technology, extended reality technology, artificial intelligence technology, machine learning, etc. Such kind of learning also requires the integration of three elements to achieve optimum usability, i.e., hardware equipment, application software, and virtual learning environment. All of these elements enable learners to learn, do activities together, and interact with one another in a virtual world. In recent years, many forms of learning in the virtual world have been widely applied to education in order to promote lifelong learning, for example, learning through 3D animation, learning through virtual classrooms, practicing through virtual laboratories, searching for learning resources through virtual libraries or virtual museums, exploring exhibitions through virtual exhibitions, etc. Overall, the application of virtual technology to various fields results in a digital learning society that can respond to the digital transformation in the future. By this way, learners shall be promoted to learn and engage in interactive activities in an instant manner through mobile devices and 3D rendering devices under virtual learning environment.
