Abstract

In the Metaverse technology, also known as MVTECH, individuals connect with one another via the use of avatars. This technology creates an immersive virtual environment. With the MVTECH, a lot of opportunities were promised to be made available to a variety of industries, including higher education. A research model was developed by combining the essential elements of the 'unified theory of acceptance and use of technology' (UTAUT) with the variables of 'perceived curiosity' (PC) and 'extraversion' (EXT). 'Effort expectancy' (EE), 'performance expectancy' (PE), 'social influence' (SI), and 'facilitating conditions' (FC) are a few of these components. The information came from an online poll that was sent to 422 kids in Jordan schools. The 'structural equation modelling' (SEM) study showed that students' feelings about the Metaverse were greatly affected by their involvement in PE, FC, and EXT. The PC construct had a big effect on the EE construct.
