Higher education in the United States is in trouble.\u00a0Spiraling tuition costs<\/a>\u00a0and a\u00a0student debt crisis<\/a>\u00a0threaten to make college unaffordable to all but the wealthy.<\/p>\n

In an attempt to cut spending and control tuition hikes, American universities are relying more and more on temporary instructors who are\u00a0underpaid, teach a heavy course load and often lack job security and health insurance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Many schools are also\u00a0increasing class sizes<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0moving courses online<\/a>\u00a0in order to lower costs. And students are not happy: Online learning is\u00a0less popular than in-person instruction, and dissatisfaction has only increased<\/a>\u00a0during the pandemic.<\/p>\n

On top of these problems, universities in the U.S. and other parts of the world are challenged by\u00a0apprenticeship<\/a>\u00a0and boot-camp initiatives that\u00a0question the relationship<\/a>\u00a0between the formal academic credentials a college gives and real-world success.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0metaverse<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a series of emerging virtual and augmented reality technologies that will offer a more immersive experience than the current internet \u2013 may help universities solve some of these problems and revolutionize the experience of remote learning.<\/p>\n

But as my colleagues and I at\u00a0UMass Boston\u2019s Applied Ethics Center<\/a>\u00a0have found through our research, solving one set of problems through artificial intelligence, or AI, and other technologies often creates another set of problems.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve found that AI has the potential to\u00a0weaken people\u2019s capacity to make ordinary judgments<\/a>\u00a0about matters that include mundane things, such as what movie to watch, as well as more weighty decisions, such as who should get a promotion at work. We\u2019ve also found that it\u00a0undermines the role of serendipity<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 that is, the chance encounters and other unexpected events that you experience in the real world \u2013 and can\u00a0undermine people\u2019s belief in the importance of human rights<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Will the metaverse bring better news for higher education? Potentially. But to build flourishing universities in the metaverse, computer engineers, higher education leaders and policymakers will have to solve some difficult problems. Here are five challenges that I view as the most urgent to address.<\/p>\n

1. Academic freedom<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Academic freedom \u2013 the ability of faculty and students to discuss and study any topic they deem important \u2013 is not assured on privately held platforms. If university teaching and intellectual exchanges are going to happen on platforms owned by corporations, what happens when these discussions become controversial?<\/p>\n

Would platforms like Meta and Zoom be committed to unfettered free exchange, even when the publicity can hurt their stock price? The recent historical track record is not encouraging. For example, Zoom, Facebook and YouTube\u00a0blocked a virtual lecture<\/a>\u00a0hosted in 2020 by San Francisco State University that featured Laila Khaled, a member of the Palestinian Front for the Liberation of Palestine who was involved in two plane hijackings in the late 1960s and early 1970s.<\/p>\n

Universities cannot give social media companies veto power over what subjects students and faculty can discuss. That would kill academic freedom. If we are going to have higher education on the metaverse, this problem has to be solved.<\/p>\n

2. Focus<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Successful learning requires the ability to pay attention to what is going on in class. A good university seminar needs to shut out the world for an hour or two. It\u2019s hard enough to achieve this level of focus with students in the real world, tempted as they are by their phones and laptops. How does one create a fully virtual learning environment conducive to concentration?<\/p>\n

Facebook\u2019s promotional videos for the metaverse, filled with\u00a0psychedelic tigers and dancing parrots<\/a>, heighten this concern. How, then, can designers make sure that the metaverse will not worsen the already serious challenges to classroom focus? There are times when, no matter how amazing an instructor may be, technological devices and what they offer are simply too tempting for students, even during class.<\/p>\n

One might think that this is an easy fix. Surely, a feature could be built in to eliminate distractions. But the same could be said about distractions originating from students\u2019 phones and computers in the current environment. It is not so easy to restrict what students can view on their own devices. Universities may worry about being seen as intrusive if they do. And just imagine how tempting immersive 3D shopping during class might be.<\/p>\n

3. Communication<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A great deal of human communication\u00a0happens nonverbally<\/a>: Facial expressions and body language reveal many of our intentions. Can avatars \u2013 cartoon representations of ourselves \u2013 convey facial expressions and body language in the same way? This is important because much of the learning in university classes, particularly in discussion-heavy classes typical of humanities courses, depends on lively, spontaneous communication. That spontaneous communication often involves the ability to transmit and receive nonverbal signals. Engineers have\u00a0only started thinking about these problems<\/a>. They will need to make a great deal of progress before nonverbal virtual communications mature.<\/p>\n

4. A sense of community<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Much of what students like about college \u2013 and a great deal of what they learn \u2013 happens outside the classroom. The best university experience\u00a0fosters a sense of community<\/a>: students getting together informally, becoming friends, developing views about each other, themselves and the political institutions that govern their lives.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0crucial sense of community<\/a>\u00a0can begin in class, but it typically develops further outside of it. Is there any way that this experience, one of the great selling points of university life, can be replicated in the metaverse? In other words, can a meaningful community between students and their teachers, and students and themselves, be created without physical presence, when all members are ensconced in their homes, wearing a headset?<\/p>\n

5. Digital divides<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Finally, policymakers and educators need to ask themselves whether higher education in the metaverse will really make universities more accessible. Will these technologies offer a compelling educational experience for a lower cost, or will they just usher in a new digital divide \u2013 a two-tiered system consisting of elites who can pay for brick and mortar schooling and those who must make do with the virtual counterpart? Or, to complicate things, what if so-called \u201cmetaversities\u201d become part of a three-tiered system, with traditional schools for the rich, metaverse virtual reality education for the middle classes, and the two-dimensional remote learning \u2013 like that being used now \u2013 for those who can\u2019t afford anything else?<\/p>\n

In spite of the challenges they face, universities remain crucial social institutions \u2013 for the generation of knowledge, for the personal development of those who attend and for hosting difficult conversations. The metaverse, if it gets off the ground, and if these very real problems can be addressed, may well offer universities a new way to survive.<\/p>\n
