ABSTRACT: The constructionist, imagineering learning system with the metaverse (CILM) is a tool that was designed to promote self-directed learning in both the virtual and physical world. In the metaverse world, users must simulate themselves into avatars to access the system, so they can learn by doing and present their works by means of virtual
technology. This study is based mainly on the concepts related to technologies and platforms in the virtual world, as well as teaching platforms in the new normal era in Thailand. The aim is to facilitate continuous learning anywhere and anytime by making the ultimate use of existing technologies in education management in Thailand, and to pave ways for young innovators in the digital age. The results of this study indicate that the CILM is an efficient tool to promote learning through the virtual world, and that young learners capable of creating innovations can work and add new knowledge to that space that can be further utilised or transferred to others. Furthermore, the system can increase the learning achievement of its users thanks to the application of digital technologies and tools that satisfy the needs of learners.

Abstract

The total learning experience (TLE) model on the cloud with an intellectual repository is a tool that can be employed to promote limitless self-learning by means of active learning. In this model, learners are encouraged to have real experiences and face challenges leading to the creation of new knowledge and enrichment of their existing knowledge. This model can also be applied in other contexts, which can be done by integrating the concepts of technologies and new platforms offering experience-based instruction to create new ways of instructional design. Moreover, the model can be utilised in the current instruction management approach that usually focuses on continuous learning with the aid of technology. The results of this research can be used as a guideline for the design and development of the TLE system using an intellectual repository, which encourages experiential learning and generates new knowledge through self-learning with the aid of digital technology. In addition, this kind of learning promotes the exchange of knowledge through on-line social networks, thus contributing to the development of digital empathy and literacy skills, and the creation of a learning society. © WIETE 2022.
