This study has two primary objectives: 1) to explore the components and learning model within the metaverse that promote collaborative learning on the Thai MOOC platform, and 2) to develop and refine this metaverse-based learning model. The study identified four key components of the metaverse: 1) People, 2) Learning Strategies, 3) Media, and 4) Technology. The learning process is structured into four stages: 1) Preparation and Immersion, 2) Mission/Quest, 3) Assessment, and 4) Repetition/Reflection. Evaluation results show that the learning model is highly suitable for enhancing collaborative learning on the Thai MOOC platform, with an overall mean score of 4.43 and a standard deviation of 0.53. The components and learning stages received the highest appropriateness ratings, each with a mean score of 4.57 and standard deviations of 0.49 and 0.51, respectively. Among the components, Media was rated the most appropriate, with a mean score of 4.71 and a standard deviation of 0.49. The Man and Technology components were equally rated, each with a mean score of 4.57 and a standard deviation of 0.53. For the learning stages, Preparation and Immersion, Mission/Quest, and Assessment all received equal high ratings, with a mean score of 4.57 and a standard deviation of 0.53, except for Repetition/Reflection, which had a standard deviation of 0.79.
