COVID-19 irrevocably changed the world as we know it. From altering how travel, real estate, and tech industries function to shifting the balance of investment and boosting interest in fields like online education, these two years have been a period of rapid development.

One of the leading changes that we saw during COVID was the acceleration of technology, especially relating to tools that connect people online. As we sat at home, unable to see friends or family members in person, we turned online. Online platforms like Zoom saw their stock price double in a matter of a few weeks, with the world turning to online solutions to connect with others.

A field that benefitted greatly from this surge of online communication tools was education. As students couldn’t go to their schools, they moved online, with remote schooling and online classes quickly becoming the norm. Students were spending hours of their days on Zoom classes, only to then play online games with their friends or communicate over those same platforms.

In a few months, the world had to move online – and so we did. That isn’t to say there weren’t any bumps in the road. Education went through a whiplash change going fully online, with students suffering the worst of many groups.

Yet, this period laid the foundations for what we now know as a very effective method of teaching. In this article, we’ll look at the future of online learning, delving into how the Metaverse could be the next big change in the world of remote teaching.

Let’s get right into it.
