Abstract

Traditionally, audiovisual communication (and later audiovirtual) has been considered as a foreign element, and even hostile, to any learning dynamic, with the exception of those learning experiences that, designed by teachers, excluded any possibility of co-creation by students. This article presents the European CloudClass project: an intuitive and low-cost tool that contributes to the universalization of learning. Based on a ubiquitous ecosystem and the potential of extended reality, CloudClass overcomes the traditional paradigm of linear and hierarchical learning, proposing multiple learning flows, as well as the autonomy, participation and pattern of learning by students, characteristic of the flipped classroom model.
