These theories and the study of how computers processed information
Massively Multi-learner Online Learning Environment: MMOLE is a genre of computer generated learning environments in which large numbers of learners interact with each other in a virtual three-dimensional (3D) world with the goal of learning. Learners assume a certain appearance through the creation of an avatar . These avatars are controlled through
A Metaverse is an online world in which there are no specific goals or objectives. It is a virtual world in which you create an avatar and then explore the world as that avatar.
