Artificial Intelligence, Meta-analysis and Metaverse: Lines of evolution in e_learning.
Participants: Isaías Salvador Sanmartín Santos; Ricardo Cerverón Lleó; Yinglong QIU; Xinyu ZHANG.
Distance learning is in full expansion. The pandemic has led to a generalisation in its use and a boom in the use of new methodologies and technologies.
The use of teaching platforms is not only for distance learning degrees, but also complements face-to-face training, allowing teachers to use new resources in their classes.
In this symposium we are going to present studies that reflect some of these trends and announce the future to follow.
We will begin by looking at the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education, with an emphasis on distinguishing what is and what is not Artificial Intelligence. As a marketing strategy, the concept of AI is being used in tools that have nothing to do with AI.
One of the most important technological bets in recent years has been the Metaverse created by Facebook.
We will see if the Metaverse is a useful option in learning, analysing a case study in Higher Education in innovation and entrepreneurship.
One of the usual problems in MOOCs and in teaching, when we have a large number of students enrolled, is the difficulty in correctly and fairly grading the work done by students. We will analyse the different assessment tools available on distance learning platforms and we will present an innovative work for the assessment of Forums.
Finally, we will analyse research trends in MOOCs in the world's most populous country: China.
