Abstract
The article investigates possible perspectives on Immersive Learning. After discussing the need for the term, the perception of non-mediation is identified as its key concept. Immersive Learning can be defined as learning with artificial experiences that are perceived as non-mediated. The research area Immersive Learning (Immersive Education) investigates educational benefits provided by such experiences. The internal process Immersive Learning is the active construction and adaption of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor models through these experiences. Immersive Learning as an educational method (Immersive Teaching) uses these experiences as a learning supply.
