Episode notes

The word or prefix meta comes from ancient greek and essentially means beyond or aboutk beyond or about. In some cases it's an adjective, like when people say, well, that's, that's so meta. And in some cases it'm a prefix to a noun, like in metaphysical or meta verse. This is going outside of something and then looking back at the thing that you've transcended and kind of commenting on it, talking about it, and so on.

754. Learning & Teaching English in The Metaverse / The Mandalorian (with Andy Johnson)

Andy Johnson returns to talk about more “M” words - this time it’s The Metaverse and The Mandalorian. The Metaverse is an immersive and interactive 3D online environment. How can it be used for learning and teaching English? Andy’s new job is with a company that offers English learning in the metaverse, so let’s chat about it. Also, we finally talk about The Mandalorian on LEP after waiting nearly a year! This is probably the last episode of LEP in 2021 - so Merry Christmas everyone and I hope you have a Happy New Year!
