Cyberphysical Learning. The best of both worlds?
Only those educational institutions that moved quickly enough to online and hybrid modalities survived the COVID-19 pandemic. In the new normality, students and teachers miss the flexibility of hybrid classes accompanied by classmates worldwide. Cyber-Physical Learning seeks to provide technology platforms that effectively blend physical and digital resources in hybrid learning environments. Telepresence robots, mixed reality, artificial intelligence, and the metaverse could be key technologies in this endeavor.
