Tokyo, Japan October 19, 2022 – Brave group, and its subsidiary Metalab, have announced the April 2023 opening of “ME Campus,” a Metaverse space where students can learn specialized skills of their choosing. Concurrent enrollment with an affiliated correspondence high school will allow users to earn an accredited high school diploma.
Due to a variety of factors, the number of students who dropout of school before finishing their education increases every year, and a different approach to education has become necessary. Recent years have also seen an up-take in the adult workforce “re-educating” themselves, as digital technologies have begun, and will likely continue, to eliminate the use case for various antiquated skills and in its place a need for modern skillset arising.
With “ME Campus,” Students will be able to learn these practical skills with video lessons and real assignments, while experiencing a real-school environment via their avatars in the Metaverse. One year courses will be open to anyone interested, in addition to the three-year program with simultaneous enrollment with the previously mentioned correspondence high school.
Additionally, these programs will facilitate not only the desired skills and knowledge by each student but also Metaverse-specific set of skills related to construction and operation through collaborative assignments and joint presentations in this unique group learning environment. Programs will also feature “mentor based learning support” and “special classes” given by a variety of notable figures in their many respective fields.
