Abstract
The aim of this research was to present an emerging educational management model in the age of artificial intelligence with the approach of developing the generation of metaverse schools. The research method was a synthesis study in terms of applied purpose, qualitative method, and theoretical data collection. The research environment included all domestic (1405-1395) and foreign (2015-2026) published articles, and the sampling method was carried out in a purposive manner until data saturation based on input criteria. The 7-step method of Sandelowski and Barso (2007) was used for data analysis. Reliable domestic and foreign sites were used to collect information. Data extraction was carried out by reading the text of the articles. The validity and reliability of the extracted concepts were validated with the help of participants. Data analysis was carried out based on the open concept, central category, and core category classification systems. In general, the results showed that the emerging educational management model in the era of artificial intelligence with the approach of expanding the generation of metaverse schools consisted of ten dimensions (accessibility of learning opportunities, changing the role of educational leadership, improving educational decision-making, transforming the learning environment, optimizing educational management, technological governance, learning simulation, personalizing learning, developing new educational skills, and future studies of education).
