Once you have logged in, you can hit the get started button to get to your dashboard.
There will be your dashboard of all the ones you have created or have copies of you highly recommend. Though, to get started that you will have to begin with searching for some meta verses that are already created. Going to the most popular category will give you some good choices to participate in and look at. If you’d like you can search by keyword most educated educators are using this currently for review reflection or even some breakout Edu. So those may be great words to search.

Cloning the structure

Cloning in Metaverse will give you a copy that you can now edit. This will live in your experiences so now in your version of review time. If You click edit you can see the back end sequence that the original creator set up for their review time. Metaverse you think this is a great way just to kind of dabble if you have never seen one because it will give your ideas about how you link things how you can set up your sequence a variety of the different types of scenes and if you like it you can actually customize it by clicking in the boxes and changing the messages or content or even customizing the images so it’s a great way to take what someone else has and kind of personalize it for yourself I’m going to back out of this and I’m actually going to start from scratch and create a new experience when you create a new experience or access any experience it is organized in the form of a storyboard you can see my current storyboard is pretty blank but each time they will start off with scene 1 which gives you options for dialogue and images each scene contains different prompts of what you can do and how you can interact with your participants this particular scene you can just giving them dialogue so to add that you can simply type in the box.
Adding a character
You want to add a character you can click on the bubble you can search from a very extensive library that Metaverse already has and so you can see how you can search by keyword up here or if you like you can actually add a character and upload any image you have on your computer this is a great way to personalize it so if you wanted to use photos of yourself or your students or even bitmoji x’ it’s a great way to kind of incorporate that however you don’t have to you can literally just search keywords based off of your topic and click use another great opportunity is to add sounds same concept you have a great library to choose from or enter the add sound option you can actually record your own voice if you would like to add an action something for this particular scene to do you can click on the add an action option if this is just the way You  like it and it’s all finished.
