Pakistan’s first-ever virtual reality classes have been added at the Information Technology University of Lahore.
Pakistan’s Information Technology University is setting the standard by offering lessons in the metaverse, a mix of the real world and the internet.
With this smart response, students taking classes online can now participate at the same level as students in a regular classroom.
Using this new setup, teachers and students can have lessons from anywhere in the country by putting on virtual reality gear.
A projector and board are part of the setup, so teachers can give their lessons correctly in a virtual setting.
They can ask questions and get replies in the metaverse, and they can also feel how other people are feeling. Students have said that the virtual school is more like real life than they are, which helps them understand the material better.

Ibrahim Ghaznavi, who is in charge of the Department of Computer Sciences, said that this program will help kids do better in school and save energy.
He remembers the time in COVID-19 when students had a hard time understanding online classes. Ghaznavi went on to say that changes to the facilities were necessary to help students understand better.
The university and the University of Denmark have agreed to work together on the trial project. People who work in the IT field think that Pakistan will become famous around the world for its contributions to this field if lawmakers pass laws that support the use of modern technology to make education better.
