“…Focusing the coding on elements related to the third category, evaluation (with five classes), allowed for extraction of relevant information required to answer RQ4. After the relevant categories, classes (visible in column C2 in Figure 2) and attributes (visible in column C3 in Figure 2) were decided upon, the classification hierarchy in Figure 2 was constructed, partially based on scientific literature (Bloom et al, 1956;Schreiber and Asnerly-Self, 2011;Motejlek and Alpay, 2019), to provide assistance during the coding process. For an in-depth description of the motivation behind this classification hierarchy, please see Supplementary Appendix C. While the required information for some of these attributes could easily be inferred directly from each study, other attributes required the first coder to deduce which attributes were applicable.…”

Background: While research on Virtual Reality’s potential for education continues to advance, research on its support for Collaborative Learning is small in scope. With remote collaboration and distance learning becoming increasingly relevant for education (especially since the COVID-19 pandemic), an understanding of Virtual Reality’s potential for Collaborative Learning is of importance. To establish how this immersive technology can support and enhance collaboration between learners, this systematic literature review analyses scientific research on Virtual Reality for Collaborative Learning with the intention to identify 1) skills and competences trained, 2) domains and disciplines addressed, 3) systems used and 4) empirical knowledge established.Method: Two scientific databases—Scopus and Web of Science—were used for this review. Following the PRISMA method, a total of 139 articles were analyzed. Reliability of this selection process was assessed using five additional coders. A taxonomy was used to classify these articles. Another coder was used to assess the reliability of the primary coder before this taxonomy was applied to the selected articlesResults: Based on the literature reviewed, skills and competences developed are divided into five categories. Educational fields and domains seem interested in Virtual Reality for Collaborative Learning because of a need for innovation, communities and remote socialization and collaboration between learners. Systems primarily use monitor-based Virtual Reality and mouse-and-keyboard controls. A general optimism is visible regarding the use of Virtual Reality to support and enhance Collaborative LearningConclusion: Five distinct affordances of Virtual Reality for Collaborative Learning are identified: it 1) is an efficient tool to engage and motivate learners, 2) supports distance learning and remote collaboration, 3) provides multi- and interdisciplinary spaces for both learning and collaborating, 4) helps develop social skills and 5) suits Collaborative Learning-related paradigms and approaches. Overall, the reviewed literature suggests Virtual Reality to be an effective tool for the support and enhancement of Collaborative Learning, though further research is necessary to establish pedagogies.

“…Therefore, the research strategy to comprehend the existing research landscape differentiates the term XR into VR, AR, and MR. These terms have already been analyzed in different research projects through taxonomies from a general perspective [47,48], for educational use cases [49], and from a technological perspective [50]. Secondly, the understanding of the term value creation within the context of XR technologies must be shaped.…”

With increasing computing power and data transmission performance of information technologies, the application scenarios for Extended Reality (XR) technologies in industries are growing. Despite the ongoing scientific investigation of industrial XR applications for over 25 years, these technologies are still considered emerging. Within this paper, we present an industry- and business-process agnostic approach for classifying the deployment purposes of XR technologies in value creation. We identified two major research streams regarding the role of XR technologies in value creation: (1) the research initiatives focusing on business-process-specific use case analysis and (2) industry-oriented research reviews. This results in limited identification of suitable application scenarios for new use cases and restricted transferability of the existing use case to future deployments. First, we provide a qualitative analysis of the current research streams. Then, in the second step, by abstracting the XR technology from the existing business processes and the industry-specific context, the generic purposes for XR technologies in value creation are identified and defined. The summary of these deployment purposes results in a taxonomy that enables the identification and transfer of potential use cases of XR technologies in value creation.

“…In VR training applications, purposes are specific and are typically equipment, machine or process operation based. It is established however, that the development of such training content is challenging (Motejlek & Alpay, 2019). We highlight the development process for content development for improved usability thereby providing a manufacturer-specific business use case for adoption in SwiftWall.…”

This paper discusses the design and development of scale masonry structures using robot arms, computer vision hardware and bespoke computational workflows. In parallel to the development of full-scale masonry solutions using a Cable Driven Parallel Robot (CDPR), a faster method for testing large numbers of brick elements is needed to verify buildability, mitigate collisions, and think differently about recycled materials during real-world construction activities. Additionally, by incorporating scanning and analysis technology, materials can be digitized, and their attributes translated into variables for placement within an intended structure.
