Summary/Abstract: Metaverse is a technology that offers the possibility of realizing in a virtual way for situations that would not be possible, independently or dependent on the real world. In addition, it supports the socialization of individuals, the formation of their self-identities, the development of their self-efficacy and the revealing of their emotions. Contrary to the positive aspects it brings to this individual, the negative aspects of the metaverse are the use of technology for profit, the inability of individuals to adapt to technology quickly, and the deficiencies experienced in terms of content. Metaverse is starting to become widespread in every field due to its positive aspects. One of these areas is education. Because education should be suitable for the conditions of the current age and to meet the future needs. This is because one of the goals of education is to raise individuals who meet the needs of society. It should be integrated into the metaverse education-teaching process for the needs of the age we live in. In the learning process, the goals that the learner has difficulty in understanding can be made understandable with the metaverse. In order to eliminate the metaverse learning problem in education, it helps in facilitating and concretizing teaching so that learning can be permanent. In this way, the metaverse helps learners to move away from rote learning and to synthesize the new information they have acquired with previous information. From this point of view, the aim of this study is to contribute to the educational sciences literature of the concept of metaverse and its use. In the research, the review of the literature was made by the method of compilation.
