THE APPLIED NATURE OF THE APPLICATION OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE ORGANIZATION OF A PEDAGOGICAL EXPERIMENT

The study analyzes trends and features of ICT application within experimental pedagogy. Specific attention is paid to metaverse as one of the most innovative applied tools in the organization of pedagogical experiments. Metaverse, a virtual shared area that combines augmented reality and virtual reality technology, is frequently referred to as the "Internet of the future" due to its potential to transform online communication, collaboration, learning, and work. However, despite its potential strategic and economic uses, there is a scarcity of empirical data to support its instructional usefulness. This study examined the impact of Metaverse on teaching and learning by examining its advantages and challenges, describing the case of metaverse application in experimental teaching physics and geometry with the help of both standardized and specifically designed metaverses. This study’s intended contribution is to provide real-life implications to educators and policymakers, particularly in the creation of education policies that align with current technology advancements, so contributing in accomplishing the overall objective of improving scientific education results.
