Abstract

This essay aimed to theoretically explore the challenges and opportunities in the implementation of immersive technologies in the Interinstitutional Doctorate in Education Program (PIDE) of the Universidad Centroccidental Lisandro Alvarado, Universidad Nacional Experimental Politécnica Antonio José de Sucre and Universidad Pedagógica Experimental Libertador. Using a documentary methodology, the logistical, economic and pedagogical challenges in doctoral training in virtuality were analyzed; interprofessionality for collaborative educational virtuality; and learning communities for doctoral tutoring in virtual environments. It was concluded that the integration of immersive technologies in doctoral training facilitates the understanding of complex and abstract concepts, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration in order to interact in a more intuitive and concrete way with constantly evolving knowledge.
