Abstract: Metaverse and pair programming are effective approaches that can be used in programming education. Combining these methods could potentially enhance both the learning experience and outcomes; however, research on their integration is currently extremely limited. Therefore, this study aims to expand the existing knowledge by proposing an educational model that integrates metaverse concepts with pair programming. The primary goal of this study is to develop and validate a metaverse-based pair programming model that focuses on collaboration between students and between students and AI. The model includes several components, such as the roles of driver and navigator, a general procedure for metaverse-based pair programming, and specific flows for forming pairs and conducting student-to-student and student-to-AI pair programming sessions. Based on this model, sample lesson plans and evaluation rubrics were developed. These were validated by experts through two rounds of a Delphi survey. The results were analyzed using content validity analysis, specifically the Content Validity Ratio (CVR), which showed that most items in the first round achieved the required minimum CVR values, and by the second round, all items met these values. This confirms that the metaverse-integrated pair programming model is both appropriate and valid, as verified by the experts. The findings from this study could aid in the development of a metaverse-pair programming platform for educational purposes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
