Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide a concise overview of existing virtual, augmented and mixed reality technologies and simulations in the context of higher education. Particularly, the technologies’ pedagogical implications and merits for assessment purposes will be investigated aiming to propose a theoretical learning and assessment framework.
