In an era of rapid technological advancement, higher education faces increasing pressure to move beyond traditional pedagogical models toward more engaging, accessible approaches. This research presents a comprehensive study reimagining technology-enhanced course delivery through a systematic journey from basic communication tools like Skype to social media platforms offering quick, quality editing capabilities at low cost, culminating in 3D immersive experiences integrated with course content. The study addresses a critical challenge in modern academia: how to increase student attendance, focus, and content absorption while maintaining practical constraints of low cost, minimal production time, and single-lecturer implementation within standard teaching schedules. Through systematic implementation and comparative analysis of this reimagined approach, this research demonstrates how educators can produce high-quality, engaging content that bridges the gap between innovative pedagogy and resource limitations. By leveraging social media editing tools for efficient content creation and integrating educational materials into 3D immersive experiences, we observed significant improvements in student engagement metrics and learning outcomes. The findings reveal practical strategies for reimagining technology-enhanced learning that align with the conference’s focus on academia’s “outward turn” toward student-centered, problem-based approaches. This presentation will share key findings, implementation frameworks, and comparative analyses of different delivery methods across this systematic journey, offering attendees a scalable roadmap for reimagining pedagogical innovation. The research contributes to emerging theories in educational technology while providing sustainable solutions for the modern academy’s transformation toward more diverse, accessible, and effective teaching practices.
