Abstract

Virtual education has been gaining interest since technology has appeared in everything in our lives. Metaverse is one of the technologies that has been initiated since the late 90s and is currently being updated and renovated to suit current changes. However, many teachers and students still do not know how to utilize virtual space to create a new atmosphere in the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to show the results of using online learning in the form of virtual space in the field of education and how teachers and students respond to the process. In this study, the author wants to conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on the advantages and disadvantages of virtual education space based on many previous studies related to the topic. The results of surveys conducted by previous studies show that most students enjoy using virtual space as their learning method and can understand some lessons better when using virtual space compared to traditional learning—textbook-based learning and face-to-face learning. Unfortunately, there are several cases of student satisfaction results in online learning that are not optimal. But the results of the Spearman correlation on offline learning most have very good academic achievement (70.7%) and high learning motivation (76.0%), then during online learning most respondents have good academic achievement (76.0%) and low learning motivation (81.3%). In general, the author concludes that virtual space has very good potential in the future to be explored in depth in the field of education because of the development of skills in the use of technology and significant improvements in student academic achievement. However, guidance from teachers and parents is still needed so that students avoid bad things.
