Objective Virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a potential tool for enhancing learning experiences in various fields, including nursing education. However, its feasibility, safety, and impact on online group discussions remain underexplored. This study aimed to assess the feasibility safety of VR conferencing basic education courses students. Methods cross-sectional was conducted with third-year students at Mie University, Tsu, Japan. Participants were assigned non-randomly either discussion using MetaQuest 3 Horizon Workrooms or video Zoom meetings. The groups discussed challenges daily lives patients chronic shoulder pain completed tasks, such listing ranking challenges. After discussions, data drop rates, levels understanding, teamwork, psychological cybersickness, cognitive load, impressions avatar usage collected. All variables are summarized by means standard deviations, medians interquartile ranges, frequencies percentages, appropriate. Results A total 36 participated this (VR group: n=17; n=19). participants without dropping out experiencing cybersickness. average time comparable between (approximately 10 minutes). Both demonstrated an equivalent understanding topic. methods had positive effects teamwork safety.

The metaverse is a new and evolving environment for fluid teams their coordination in organizations. Fluid may have no prior familiarity with each other or working together. Yet are known to benefit from degree of familiarity–knowledge about teams, members, together–in team performance. unfamiliar territory that promises fluidity contexts–seamless traversal between physical virtual worlds. This contexts has implications interaction, identity, potentially time. We explore the opportunities challenges presents terms (un)familiarity. Improved understandings (un)familiarity pave way forms experiences uses.

With the increasing adoption of social virtual reality (VR), it is critical to design inclusive avatars. While researchers have investigated how and why blind d/Deaf people wish disclose their disabilities in VR, little known about preferences many others with invisible (e.g., ADHD, dyslexia, chronic conditions). We filled this gap by interviewing 15 participants, each one three disabilities, who represented 22 different total. found that invisibly disabled approached avatar-based disclosure through contextualized considerations informed prior experiences. For example, some wished use VR's embodied affordances, such as facial expressions body language, dynamically represent energy level or willingness engage others, while preferred not disability identity any context. define a binary framework for expression (public private) discuss patterns (Activists, Non-Disclosers, Situational Disclosers) inform future VR

In the aftermath of COVID-19 pandemic, prevalence remote business meetings through videoconferencing platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams has substantially increased. While provide benefits increased efficiency, flexibility, environmental sustainability, they may also reduce meeting engagement, hamper conversational flow, or cause fatigue. This study investigates whether social Extended Reality technology can serve a viable alternative for meetings. Employees from three distinct organizations in Netherlands convened Meta Horizon Workrooms, collaborative virtual platform. Afterwards, participants were inquired about their perspectives on during semi-structured interviews that focused meeting’s flow system’s usability. The study’s findings highlight meetings, reported improved interaction, more togetherness, better flow. Embodied reality was identified useful supporting nonverbal communication by allowing natural interaction turn-taking, similar to face-to-face interactions. Nonetheless, challenges associated with avatar realism developing technological state present barriers, rendering current widespread adoption difficult task.
