2023 9th International Conference of the Immersive Learning Research Network (iLRN) - Full and Short papers
The 9th annual International Conference of the Immersive Learning Research Network (iLRN 2023) continued to push the boundaries of immersive learning, offering a hybrid experience that combined a virtual campus experience on the iLRN Virtual Campus (powered by ©Virbela) and Zoom meetings inMay, followed by on-location events in June at the California Polytechnic State University (CalPoly) campus, in San Luis Obispo (SLO), California. This year’s conference brought together an international community
of scholars, practitioners, and innovators to explore the theme of “Learning Across the Metaverse: Building an Evidence-based Framework through Science, Community, Vision, & Adventure!”
One hundred and ten submissions were received for the Academic track. Every submission underwent a rigorous review by at least three members of the Program Committee to maintain high scientific and quality standards. All contributions were evaluated in a double-blind review process and checked for plagiarism to ensure authors submitted original work. After the peer-review process, all authors were given meaningful feedback on their submissions.
After a rigorous review process and based on the peer-review results, the editorial board decided to accept thirty-nine papers for the Springer proceedings (44.32% acceptance rate). The papers are arranged into ten main Immersive Learning areas of application (iLRN Branch Houses) and an additional one for our special track. iLRN Branch Houses work as umbrellas for each application area towards the systematization of research, design, and practice of immersive learning experiences. These are part
of the Immersive Learning Knowledge Tree initiative, aiming to bridge their different epistemological landscapes to combine their efforts and develop the field of immersive learning research.
We are pleased to partner with Springer’s Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series to publish all accepted and registered full and short papers in the Academic Stream presented at iLRN 2023. All work-in-progress poster papers, doctoral colloquium papers, and practitioner papers were published with an individual DOI in the iLRN online proceedings.
This was only possible due to authors submitting their novel research, peer-reviewers providing expertise to suggest improvements and recommendations, and volunteers donating their time to our conference. We sincerely thank those involved who volunteered their time to make this an unforgettable event and attendees for joining us and sharing their excellent work with the iLRN community.
We hope this publication will be a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and researchers in immersive learning and inspire future discoveries and innovations in our exciting and rapidly evolving field.
If you are not already involved, we invite you to read these proceedings and join us in our subsequent events and ongoing initiatives.
This Academic Proceedings volume is part of the Academic Track and is published by Springer.
