Abstract
The purpose of the study reported on in this chapter is evaluating teachers' and schools' capacities to integrate technologies into a new educational curriculum using an e-capacity model approach. Against the background of navigating virtual worlds and the metaverse for enhanced e-learning, the chapter will discuss issues with regard to effective strategies and policies for digital integration in education and training, societal issues (social inequality and the digital divide, etc.), legal and ethical issues (intellectual property legislation, etc.), the hybridization of training (hybrid, Hy Flex, co-modal, etc.), simulations, artificial intelligence (AI) for training, the educational metaverse, and information and communication technologies (ICTs).
