Virtual world technology is driving major advances in education, entertainment, and professional training. Metaverse and extended reality (XR) technologies maximize immersion to enhance learning, provide global learning environments, and expose students to situations that are difficult to experience in real life. Career exploration is an important developmental task in adolescence, and virtual training maximizes learning by providing life-like experiences with imagery training. Virtual training overcomes spatial, financial, performance, and situational constraints and is effective in a variety of fields, including military and disaster training. It provides customized learning for various users such as youth, job seekers, and people with disabilities, deepening their understanding of professional activities and improving their problem-solving skills. It also improves the quality of learning through repetitive learning and contributes to the improvement of teamwork and communication skills, and helps to solve financial problems by using unlimited internal resources and space in virtual space, and enables people with disabilities to perform in various professions. This paper investigated the value of virtual training as a comprehensive educational tool through an economical and efficient learning experience.

The purpose of this study is to propose a plan to establish a system that can maximize the effectiveness of disaster safety training. A review of previous studies and analysis of current status cases was conducted to examine the current level of data, systems, demand technologies, laws, and systems for related fields. A disaster safety training system linking digital twin and extended reality technology was proposed, and a study on the construction plan was conducted for this. It is hoped that the results of this study can contribute to the advancement of the disaster safety training system and reduce disaster damage.

5세대(5G) 이동통신망의 보급과 코로나19 여파로 비대면 시대가 열리면서 가상 증강현실(VR·AR)을 기반으로 한 '실감(XR·Extended Reality)경제가 본격화 되었다. 가상증강현실의 적용분야로는 게임·영화 등 엔터테인먼트, 제조업, 쇼핑 및 전자상거래, 병원·의료기기, 고객서비스, 지식서비스교육 분야 등이 있다. 본 논문은 VR·AR&교육콘텐츠를 키워드로 최근 3년(2018.1.1.~2020.12.31.)간 중앙지, 경제지 등 54개 언론사 기사를 빅카인즈와 데이터랩을 이용하여 관계도 분석, 월간 키워드 트렌드, 연관어 분석을 하였다. 'VR, AR, 에듀테크'를 키워드로 뉴스 검색결과 63,959건 중 '에듀테크' 검색결과 2018년 632건, 2019년 1043건, 2020년 2389건으로 해마다 급 상승하였다. '(AR+VR)AND 교육콘텐츠'에 대한 검색 결과 연관성(키워드 빈도수)이 높은 키워드로는 증강현실(120), 가상현실(116), 인공지능(114), 에듀테크(100), 코로나19(66), 실감형(65), 아이들(61), VR·AR(56), ICT(35), 빅데이터(25) 순으로 가상·증강현실 기술 발전, 코로나19의 장기화, 교육의 효율성으로 에듀테크 분야의 활용도가 급격히 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다.

메타버스란 가상, 초월을 뜻하는 Meta와 우주, 세계를 뜻하는 Universe의 합성어로 가상과 현실이 상호작용 하면서 사회·경제·문화 활동이 이루어지며 가치를 창출하는 세상을 말한다. 이러한 메타버스는 5G와 그래픽 기술의 발전과 함께 코로나 사태로 인한 비대면 생활이 계속되면서 디지털 네이티브 세대인 Z세대가 메타버스 플랫폼을 소통의 장으로 삼기 시작하면서 성장하고 있다. 메타버스 안에서 콘서트나 사인회를 하고, 가상 아이템을 판매하며 마케팅을 벌이는 등 다양한 산업에서 메타버스에 뛰어들고 있다. 점점 진화하고 있는 메타버스는 메타버스 내에서 유저들 간에 맺는 상호관계 활동이 큰 장점이지만, 이로 인해 개인정보 보호 문제나, 위치정보, 금융정보 문제 등의 다양한 문제가 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 메타버스에서 발생할 수 있는 문제점과 그 대응 방안을 제시하였다.

COVID-19, which occurred in Wuhan, China, made it difficult for Korean churches to face to face worship, therefore metaverse emerged as an alternative to solving these problems. metaverse is forming various platforms through technology expressed in 3I(Immersion, Interactive, virtual Image). The purpose of this study is to analyze the application plan of Christian education by applying metaverse technologies to Christian education. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, first, the definition, type, platform, and technology of the metaverse are presented to examine the key of the metaverse, second, in order to analyze the church from the theological educational aspect, the essence of the church, the mission of the church, and the metaverse church are examined, third in order to apply the metaverse to Christian education, it is classified into worship through the metaverse, education through the metaverse, service through the metaverse, the christian relationship through the metaverse, and missions through the metaverse. The application plan of the metaverse for Christian education is that first, worship can be held through metaverse. Second, education can be performed through the metaverse. Third, the metaverse can be used to fulfill the mission of service. Fourth, through the metaverse, christian can fellowship through the metaverse. Fifth, the missionary mission can be carried out through the metaverse. In conclusion, metaverse is still in the development stage, but various programs should be developed to achieve the purpose of Christian education by utilizing various platforms developed so far and utilizing the advantages of the platform. In particular, the Korean church will be able to utilize various programs such as Sunday worship, Sunday school, youth retreat, QT, Bible school, and pilgrimage through the metaverse to make good use of the characteristics of the metaverse. In addition, metaverse is an extended reality(XR) that integrates VR, AR, and MR, and its strength is an engagement in creative Christian educational activities out of the original Christian education. In the future, metaverse technology can be applied to Christian education in various ways as the fourth industrial technology is developing.
