Design of a multilinguistic Problem Based Learning learning environment in the metaverse

摘要

There is a growing interest in teaching people to acquire a global perspective. For this purpose, educational institutions are encouraging intercultural exchanges, such as short-term overseas study programs and internships. However, such programs are so expensive that students cannot take them easily. In this paper, we have built a multilinguistic learning environment in cyber-space. We have designed a learning environment that is optimal for Problem Based Learning (PBL). PBL allows intensive exchanges. Unlike ordinary PBL, this environment enables students to learn in a group consisting of students with diverse senses of value. Students can develop a new sense of value through exchanges with people with different cultural backgrounds, and the teacher can cultivate new perspectives in training students with diverse cultural backgrounds.
