The most common way to control a target point using artificial intelligence is through reinforcement learning. However, it had to process complicated calculations that were difficult to implement in order to process reinforcement learning. In this paper, the enhanced Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm was used to simulate finding the planned flight trajectory to reach the target point in the virtual environment. In this paper, we simulated how this problem was used to find the planned flight trajectory to reach the target point in the virtual environment using the enhanced Proximal Policy Optimization(PPO) algorithm. In addition, variables such as changes in trajectory, effects of rewards, and external winds are added to determine the zero conditions of external environmental factors on flight trajectory learning, and the effects on trajectory learning performance and learning speed are compared. From this result, the simulation results have shown that the agent can find the optimal trajectory in spite of changes in the various external environments, which will be applicable to the actual vehicle.

The aim of this paper is to develop a web-based Virtual Learning System for discrete mathematics learning using CAS (Computer Algebra System), The system contains a series of contents that are common between secondary und university curriculum in discrete mathematics such as sets, relations, matrices, graphs etc. We designed and developed web-based virtual learning contents contained in the proposed system based on Mathematia, webMathematica and phpMath taking advantages of rapid computation and visualization. The virtual learning system for discrete math provides movie lectures and 'practice mode' authored with phpMath in order to enhance conceptual understanding of each movie lesson. In particular, matrix learning is facilitated with conceptual diagram that provides interactive quizzes. Once the quiz results are submitted, Bayesian inference network diagnoses strong and weak parts of learning nodes for generating diagnostic reports to facilitate personalized learning. As part of formative evaluation, the overall responses were collected for future revision of the system with 10 university students.

We have studied a model and application that evolves the behavioral knowledge of a virtual robot. The knowledge is represented in classification rules and a neural network, and is learned by a genetic algorithm. The model consists of a virtual robot with behavior knowledge, an environment that it moves in, and an evolution performer that includes a genetic algorithm. We have also applied our model to an environment where the robots gather food into a nest. When comparing our model with the conventional method on various test cases, our model showed superior overall learning.

The recent development of metaverse-related technology has led to efforts to overcome the limitations of time and space in education by creating a virtual educational environment. To make use of this platform efficiently, applying learning analytics has been proposed as an optimal instructional and learning decision support approach to address these issues by identifying specific rules and patterns generated from learning data, and providing a systematic framework as a guideline to instructors. To achieve this, we employed an inductive, bottom-up approach for framework modeling. During the modeling process, based on the activity system model, we specifically derived the fundamental components of the learning analytics framework centered on learning activities and their contexts. We developed a prototype of the framework through deduplication, categorization, and proceduralization from the components, and refined the learning analytics framework into a 7-stage framework suitable for application in the metaverse through 3 steps of Delphi surveys. Lastly, through a framework model evaluation consisting of seven items, we validated the metaverse learning analytics framework, ensuring its validity.

VR and AR are widely used in many applications to provide more immersive visualization and natural interaction for learning and experiencing virtual but realistic tasks. Energy saving is considered as one of the most important issues throughout the world in order to overcome global warming and energy crisis. In particular, the awareness of home energy saving is regarded as a first step to deal with this issue. In this paper, we suggest a new learning environment using virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) for home energy saving experience. In particular, it presents a comparative study of the user experience in home energy awareness using immersive virtual reality and mobile augmented reality. The first person user experience using immersive VR wearing head mounted display (HMD) and the third person user experience using mobile AR are implemented and systematically compared with each other in terms of the learning effect of energy saving and qualitative usability. Implementation results will be given to show the advantage and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Recently, realistic contents using virtual reality and augmented reality are attracting attention as learning aids. 3D-based contents have the advantage of being able to observe and experience objects from various angles than 2D-based contents shown on a flat surface. In this paper, we propose a content design based on 3D model for Arduino learning in a virtual environment. The Arduino board and sensor were implemented using Blender, and a 3D-based simulator environment was constructed using the Unity engine. The proposed content uses the Arduino board and sensor implemented in 3D so that learners can easily experience the working principle of Arduino and the coding process.

This study developed an English conversation learning program in immersive virtual reality (VR) environments and compared its effects with non-immersive VR environment using a computer monitor. The effects of the program was assessed using language anxiety and learning achievement. The results indicated that students' language anxiety decreased significantly after learning English conversation in VR environment, but there was no difference between immersive and non-immersive VR. The two VR conditions also produced similar learning outcomes. Future research on immersive VR need to address cyber sickness problems and develop effective learning contents in order to realize its potential for learning.

Recently there have been some positive evidences on the effects of learning in a virtual environment. However, most of these educational VR systems were not deeply considered in the design of drawing a learner's attention on lesson contents, which would help enhance retained memory. Hence, a study was conducted to measure 17 subjects' attention states using EEC, ECG, GSR, and eye-tracking and their behaviors while they were given guided search task or exploration task in a virtual environment consisting of five major events. It also analyzed the subject's remembered items after their VR experiences using a surrey. This paper Int describes an overview of the ocean virtual environment used in this study, and it then explains the experimental design, apparatus, and method. It will also discuss the results by a detail analysis (in a whole VR session as well as event-related 10-second 33 sub-sessions) with the subjects' attention states and their retained memory after the learning.

Under the influence of COVID-19, as a measure of social distancing for about two years and one month, non-face-to-face services using ICT element technology are expanding not only to the education sector but to all fields. In particular, as educational programs using the Metaverse platform spread to various fields, educators, and learners have more learning experiences using Edutech, but problems through non-face-to-face learning such as reduced immersion or concentration in education are raising In this paper, to overcome the problems raised through non-face-to-face learning and develop metaverse immersive media digital contents to improve the educational environment, we utilize VR (Virtual Reality) based on an immersive metaverse to provide education / Training contents and the educational environment was established. In this paper, we presented a system to increase immersion and concentration in educational contents in a virtual environment using HMD (Head Mounted Display) for learners who are put into military education/training. Immersion was further improved.
