Abstract

Metaverse-based learning has emerged as an increasingly popular trend in higher education. However, previous studies on the efficiency of business education within the framework of Metaverse-based Learning is insufficient, despite its profound importance in higher education. To address this problem, the PRISMA methodology are employed to examine recent studies conducted over the last five years. The search encompassed two major databases, namely Scopus and Web of Science, supplemented by the inclusion of Google Scholar as a supporting database. A systematic exploration of the literature yielded a total of 14 articles. The review of these articles indicates that the integration of Metaverse technologies in business education offers enhancements in students' learning experiences and practical skills. Furthermore, the majority of students exhibit a positive attitude towards this educational approach. But there still exit some challenges cannot be ignored.
