Abstract Although Global Englishes (GE) research continues to grow in English language teaching (ELT), the role of technology enhancing GE awareness remains underexplored. Addressing this gap, study investigates potential as a lingua franca (ELF) interactions with artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots raising awareness. Using quasi‐experimental design, 97 South Korean pre‐service teachers were divided into control group (CG, n = 32) and two experimental groups (EG1, 31; EG2, 34) for 16‐week teacher‐training courses. The CG received no instruction, while EG1 conducted presentation task EG2 interacted AI 3D metaverse environments. We used mixed‐methods approach pre‐ post‐test surveys interviews. ANCOVA results survey data showed that both tasks had positive effects on all facets (e.g., acceptance one's local English, other Englishes, native‐speakerism, ELF confidence intention, willingness incorporate GELT teaching), chatbot exerting stronger effect intention. For practical implications, findings outlined pedagogical strategies integrating computer‐assisted (CA) learning. Theoretically, we proposed CA‐GELT future era generative technology.

In recent years, research and applications related to the metaverse have garnered widespread attention in field of online education. However, enhancing user experiences learning remains a challenging issue. This study aims explore how gamification enhances experience by boosting motivation. first phase research, relationship between gamification, motivation, satisfaction was examined. The results indicated higher with gamified experiences, intrinsic external regulations serving as mediating factors satisfaction. second study, five elements (challenge, reward, feedback, PBL, social interaction) were further validated for their role motivation and, consequently, improving Notably, rewarding element emerged most significant factor. These findings hold practical significance providers application learning. They provide valuable insights future implementation this evolving field.

The coronavirus disease – 2019 pandemic has accelerated the proliferation of virtual technologies and had have an enormous impact on education. In this paper, we analyse teachers' perceptions about use metaverse in educational practices how it contributes to local development. We focused our study China Spain as reference countries metaverse, but whose collaboration, arena, is not significant. For that purpose, designed a questionnaire explore views 20 teachers from each two universities selected, one other Spain, which applies innovation entrepreneurship results show its initial experimentation phase. Its application education limited attitudes towards teaching, rather allows students acquire real skills, can contribute development society improve international cooperation, thus creating virtuous circle.

In sports, virtual spaces are sometimes utilized to enhance performance or user experience. this study, we conducted a frequency analysis, semantic network and topic modeling using 134 abstracts obtained through keyword searches focusing on "Sport(s)" in combination with "Metaverse," "Augmented Reality," "Virtual "Lifelogging," "Mixed Reality." First, the top 20 words were extracted then each type of word was retained select seven words. The analysis revealed emergence key themes such as "user(s)," "game(s)," "technolog (y/ies)," "experience(d)," "physical," "training," "video," variations intensity depending Metaverse. Second, relationships between reconfirmed networks based selected Finally, uncover specific We also found that "performance/scoring prominent across all types Metaverses. This suggests addition providing enjoyment there is high possibility users (both general athletes) utilize Metaverse achieve positive outcomes success. importance "performance/scoring" sports may seem obvious; however, it provides significant insights for practitioners when combined Metaverse-related keywords. Ultimately, study has managerial implications enhancing specialized industry.

Purpose The primary objective of this study is to combine the technology acceptance model with substitution, augmentation, modification and redefinition (SAMR) investigate assess professors’ willingness engage in teaching metaverse classrooms. Design/methodology/approach collected survey data from 240 qualified respondents who were actively involved knowledgeable about immersive environments using snowball sampling method. To validate our hypotheses concerning conceptual model, employed bootstrapping method Smart PLS 4.0. Findings Our findings reveal that several key factors significantly influence attitudes intentions professors teach classrooms (MVCs). These include perceived level knowledge integration related metaverse, ease technologies usefulness these for both learners. Studying intention offers practical benefits. Practical implications research provide essential information educational institutions by identifying impact readiness By comprehending factors, can make informed decisions resource distribution, faculty training development strategies adopting technology. Moreover, valuable insights policymakers professors, enabling them improve preparedness facilitate efficient incorporation into system. Originality/value help higher education understand readiness, allocate resources monitor adoption tools their teaching-learning process.
