The Erasmus+ programme is one of the European Union's (EU) most successful initiatives to promote student mobility. The metaverse’s emergence can introduce a new dimension to the Erasmus experience, enabling virtual mobility, collaborative learning, and innovative educational opportunities. This paper envisions the integration of immersive technologies into the Erasmus+ programme through the development of a Metaverse Erasmus Hub, a visionary platform to enhance the mobility experience across all four key phases: the pre-departure phase, the arrival and integration phase, the academic or training phase, and the post-mobility phase. The proposal describes how the metaverse can complement physical mobility by providing interactive and person-centred environments. The paper outlines potential directions that could inspire future European Commission (EC) initiatives aimed at creating a digital ecosystem to support international student engagement and participation. It also explores the main challenges, including ethical issues, and possible solutions for successfully and equitably implementing the metaverse in education.

摘要

The Erasmus+ programme is one of the European Union's (EU) most successful initiatives to promote student mobility. The metaverse’s emergence can introduce a new dimension to the Erasmus experience, enabling virtual mobility, collaborative learning, and innovative educational opportunities. This paper envisions the integration of immersive technologies into the Erasmus+ programme through the development of a Metaverse Erasmus Hub, a visionary platform to enhance the mobility experience across all four key phases: the pre-departure phase, the arrival and integration phase, the academic or training phase, and the post-mobility phase. The proposal describes how the metaverse can complement physical mobility by providing interactive and person-centred environments. The paper outlines potential directions that could inspire future European Commission (EC) initiatives aimed at creating a digital ecosystem to support international student engagement and participation. It also explores the main challenges, including ethical issues, and possible solutions for successfully and equitably implementing the metaverse in education.
