Blockchain and Innovation in Online Education

Blockchain is not only known in the financial sector but is also making a big impact on online education. Here are the important changes that blockchain brings to EdTech:

Blockchain and Innovation in Online Education

Ownership of knowledge and personal data

Currently, most of students' learning data is stored on traditional education platforms, which makes them not have full control over their personal information. With blockchain, each student can own and manage their own learning data, including certificates, achievements, and completed courses without depending on any intermediary.

Transparent learning and assessment, no cheating

Blockchain systems help prevent cheating in education by creating uneditable learning records. This ensures transparency in assessing students' abilities, while making it easy for employers to verify degrees without going through many complicated procedures.

Decentralized Learning Platforms – No More Barriers to Education

Blockchain helps break down geographical and cost barriers, creating open learning platforms that anyone can participate in. Blockchain courses can be accessed anytime, anywhere without depending on traditional educational institutions, increasing flexibility and learning opportunities for everyone.

Blockchain and the new education economic model

Blockchain technology not only brings transparency but also creates a new education economy with many development opportunities:
Tokenizing learning content: Teachers, lecturers and content creators can be rewarded with tokens for providing quality knowledge. This encourages contributions from the community and makes EdTech platforms more vibrant.
Smart contracts help automate processes: Smart contracts help automate transactions such as tuition payments, certification or content distribution, reducing operating costs and processing time.
Learning based on "micro-credentials": Instead of just receiving a traditional degree, learners can accumulate small certificates on the blockchain, creating a flexible competency profile that is suitable for modern recruitment needs.
