This study explores the factors influencing adoption and acceptance of Metaverse technologies in educational settings. Despite growing interest immersive environments provided by Metaverse, there is a lack comprehensive understanding regarding elements that affect user engagement acceptance. paper aims to bridge this gap through systematic review empirical studies apply Information Systems theories such as TAM, UTAUT, TPB, their extensions. A total 35 were analyzed using methodical approach. The research methodologies employed these include surveys, structural equation modeling, interviews, providing broad spectrum data on how different influence outcomes Metaverse. findings reveal contexts influenced multiple at individual, technological, environmental levels. Key identified effort expectancy, behavioral intention, self-efficacy, enjoyment, immersion. These are subject moderating effects, suggesting dynamics highly context-dependent. insights gained from provide valuable guidelines for educators, policymakers, technology developers aiming effectively integrate into frameworks. also outlines limitations suggests directions future research, highlighting need further investigations longitudinal impacts cultural adaptability applications education.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized telerehabilitation by integrating machine learning (ML), big data analytics, and real-time feedback to create adaptive, patient-centered care. AI-driven systems enhance analyzing patient personalize therapy, monitor progress, suggest adjustments, eliminating the need for constant clinician oversight. The benefits of AI-powered include increased accessibility, especially remote or mobility-limited patients, greater convenience, allowing patients perform therapies at home. However, challenges persist, such as privacy risks, digital divide, algorithmic bias. Robust encryption protocols, equitable access technology, diverse training datasets are critical addressing these issues. Ethical considerations also arise, emphasizing human oversight maintaining therapeutic relationship. AI aids clinicians automating administrative tasks facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration. Innovations like 5G networks, Internet Medical Things (IoMT), robotics further telerehabilitation’s potential. By transforming rehabilitation into a dynamic, engaging, personalized process, together represent paradigm shift in healthcare, promising improved outcomes broader worldwide.
