Abstract: With the boom of the metaverse, the application of immersive learning in education has received a lot of social attention. However, the immersive learning is not a new thing born with the metaverse. By combing through the historical dimension, it is found that the immersive learning from the perspective of the metaverse can be divided into four types: story content immersion with the support of skill, audiovisual sensory immersion under the mixed application of multimedia, simulation space immersion empowered by virtual reality technology, holographic somatosensory immersion under metacosmic technology. All four types of immersive learning face different opportunities and challenges in the context of meta-universe development. Under the perspective of metaverse, different learning scenarios need to integrate the advantages of different types of immersive learning in order to maximize the comprehensive performance of immersive learning by ways of improving the organizational process, building a precise recommendation mechanism to optimize the learning content, classifying and optimizing the policy, matching the optimal scenarios to enhance the learning effect, adhering to the systematic thinking, collaborating with the wisdom of the technology to enrich the learning means, and cohesion of multi-party synergy, and firmly grasping the awareness of the main body to resolve the potential crises.
