Abstract

The emergence of Extended Reality (XR) applications, encompassing Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR), signifies a transformative shift in teaching and learning paradigms. However, this growing technology brings with it a spectrum of threats that could disrupt its effectiveness and equitable distribution in educational settings. This study explores the threats of XR in teaching and learning through a qualitative method approach. Nine main threats of XR applications to teaching and learning were identified based on the findings from semi-structured interviews. These encompass privacy and intellectual property, risks towards cybersecurity, health, safety, content appropriateness, distractions, accessibility issues, loss of human interactions, and dependence on technology.
