Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article presents the concept of a Metauniversity as the next stage in the development of higher education, enabling a transition from traditional 2D formats to decentralized immersive ecosystems. The scientific novelty of this approach lies in its interpretation of virtual reality (VR) not simply as a visualization tool but also as an active socio-pedagogical mediator capable of correcting students' cognitive and psychological deficiencies. The empirical basis of the study confirms the technology's high adaptability: 95% of students expressed a willingness to engage in traditional learning in an immersive format. At the same time, the article critically analyzes the technology's limitations, particularly issues of visual strain and inclusiveness for users with visual impairments. The study concludes that a Metauniversity, built on the principles of a secure and confidential infrastructure, creates an environment for safe, visual, and fully autonomous learning, becoming a key element of the educational paradigm of the future.
