A ranking of immersive experience based on the implementation/use of the ten factors of Immersive Learning. The ten factors are listed top to bottom and ranked from minimal immersion to total immersion. The numbers equate to the degree of immersion.

To help designers create these experiences inside immersive technologies, JJ Ruscella and Dr. Mohammad Obeid developed the Immersive Learning Taxonomy (below), supporting a Government initiative called Pathways in Immersive Technology Application in collaboration with the US Airforce, which breaks down the elements of immersion. This was developed and published through IEEE Xplore with additional development through Air Force University LDC Commanders and Dr. Andrew Clayton. These elements help designers as they make creative decisions and build the creative spaces where immersive learning takes place.
