Abstract
Recently, metaverse is becoming increasingly important in coding education. One of the most important elements in metaverse is interaction in 3D virtual space. However, most existing education methods still utilize metaverse for unidirectional education without making use of interaction. This paper proposes a new method of using metaverse for bidirectional coding education. In the metaverse virtual space, a professor and students are able to share their PC screens for monitoring purposes. Also, once a student sends a request to the professor, the professor can immediately provide proper feedback (such as source codes correction) through access control. This metaverse virtual space is able to include more than two professors that allows for a many-to-many coding education. This paper presents a way of constructing the metaverse environment and teaching scenario, followed by the descriptions of the advantages and requirements for the proposed method.
