“…(M6) Present Content via Multiple Modalities: Constructivists advocate for the inclusion of multiple modes of representation to help learner robustly build a mental construction of knowledge (P6); this will benefit from a spatially adaptive content delivery modality like XR which can utilize the entire 360°view for presenting a diverse content conveniently [62].…”

“…Multiple windows and tabs browsing in 2D may have flaws that hinder user performance due to limited UI space. However, a VR browsing environment can improve user viewing efficiency because of its tangible interaction pattern and greater space for browsing content [62]. There is also evidence that spatial UI design can decrease the number of manual interface adaptations [70].…”

Metaverse, an alternative universe for play, work and interaction, has become a captivating topic for academia and industry in recent times. This opens the question on what a metaverse for education, or edu-metaverse, should look like. It is believed that this metaverse for learning should be grounded by a pedagogical theory. Particularly, we propose a constructivist metaverse learning theory with eight actionable principles to guide the edu-metaverse and its applications. With this metaverse learning theory, we further propose the framework for an edu-metaverse; it is essentially walkable yellow pages that connect knowledge. The core idea is to combine the structure of knowledge graphs and the immersion of virtual reality in order to facilitate association, exploration and engagement in learning. Our current prototype for this edu-metaverse vision, K-Cube VR, is also presented. We have tested K-Cube VR for the introduction of course topics to our students and the results indicate that our edu-metaverse framework benefits students by providing a focused environment and structured learning on the topics of a course, akin to a mind map. Overall, in this paper, we present an edu-metaverse design that is rooted in a constructivist pedagogy that already shows promising results from a pilot user study via our metaverse prototype.

“…The problem is that users feel frustration when repetitive tasks are involved in extracting content from different websites. [2] studied that multiple windows and tabs have significant flaws that hinder users' performance. Here, the approach is to empower end-users to develop extracting content functionality by themselves avoiding this problem.…”

The WorldWide Web has endured an incredible growth in the last decades. Nowadays, we can visit an unimaginable number of websites from different devices (laptops, mobiles, tablets...) in order to obtain immediate information. However, this information is separated in different resources and Web information search is unpleasant. The feeling of the users is frustrating when collecting information from different resources. Techniques such as Web personalization and Web customization have been an important research area during the last years. Web customization techniques have been widely used to develop website adaptation along the WorldWide Web. This customization is frequently performed by end-users that use the numerous tools available to carry out this assignment. This article presents Excore, a Web customization tool that permits endusers to customize their websites with automatic Web searches. The article presents the benefits introduced by Excore as a response to the drawbacks end-users experience while they perform their Web activities. Evaluation of the Web customization tool is also addressed in the paper. Evaluation is performed with stakeholders by means of tests and surveys. Results show that testers overcome the detected drawbacks with the use of Excore.
