AB Multi-user immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) environments have gainedattention for their potential to facilitate collaborative learning experiences. Theseenvironments offer ideal settings for social interaction, collaborative learning,and experiential learning. However, the development of these immersive environments can be time-consuming, and existing options often have limitations that hinder widespread adoption in educational settings. The framework aims to addressthese challenges by providing a structured approach to design and developmentmulti-user immersive virtual reality environments. The proposed framework integrates key components such as user interaction, data tracking, and visualizationfunctionalities, with a focus on enhancing learning outcomes and promoting collaborative experiences. Through the utilization of the framework, developers cancreate interactive iVR learning environments that facilitate meaningful engagement and knowledge acquisition. To illustrate its functionality, a case study ispresented, showcasing a multi-user virtual reconstruction of San Juan de Arce, LaRioja (Spain) for cultural heritage learning. The results demonstrate the potentialof the framework in creating engaging and educational experiences while reducingdependence on external tools. Future research directions emphasize the continuous improvement and adaptability of the framework to meet diverse educationalneeds.
