Ways to Incorporate Metaverse Into CLASSUM

Through Gather, a Metaverse tool, users can create a virtual world where they can feel a sense of actually being together. Users can also freely interact with one another through their avatars and choose a counterpart to talk to.
However, the tool also conveys disadvantages of offline communication such as high volatility, delays due to travel time, and difficulties of controlling interactions.
This is where CLASSUM can step in to effectively conduct education! Please refer to the 5 use cases below
