Purpose As a sociotechnical system, the metaverse has sparked heated discussion. However, concerns abound that concept is “old wine in new bottle” used for capital hype. The mixed definitions of and unclear relationships between its technical features user behaviors have greatly impeded design application. Therefore, authors aim to sort out definition properties, analyze various contexts unveil mechanisms leading behaviors. Design/methodology/approach conduct literature review on definition, of/in metaverse. Findings First, identify two main categories find conceptualization. Second, present technologies diverse Third, summarize effect from perspective. Originality/value features, their theoretical foundations. Based these findings, propose framework unveiling how social elements affect In conclusion, study offers research agenda future studies.

Abstract Although Industry 4.0 plays the role of a catalyst in transition from linear economy to circular (CE), some sustainability goals are neglected by prioritizing machines over humans. 5.0 insists on combining technology with human values achieve sustainable development goals. Therefore, integration CE and leads synergy various industries, especially manufacturing industries. However, their is always associated challenges barriers. This study identifies set these barriers electric vehicle battery production industry financial, technical, supply chain, cultural, regulatory processes perspectives through deep literature review. The fuzzy weighted influence non‐linear gauge system method used analyze relationship between identified prioritization. Finally, we leverage knowledge four experts an company Southeast Asia validate proposed approach rank results demonstrate that immature providers biggest obstacle blockchain‐based industry.

With the rapid advances of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its technologies, human teachers machines are now capable collaborating to effectively achieve specified outcomes. In educational settings, such collaboration requires consideration several dimensions ensure safe, responsible, ethical usage. While various research studies have discussed human-machine or cooperation in education, a framework is needed that aligns with contemporary affordances. Providing can help better understand how team up education what should be considered while doing so. To address this gap, paper outlines iSTAR (Intelligent Synergy collaborative teaching: utilizing digital Twins, Avatars/Agents Robots) framework. represents as an ecosystem goes beyond simple between education. Therefore, it presents core DELTA (design, ethics, learning, teaching assessments) designing learning opportunities.
