abstract |
Blockchain technology provides a decentralised peer-to-peer infrastructure, supporting
openness, transparency, accountability, identity management and trust. As such, the
Blockchain has the potential to revolutionise online education in a number of ways.
Blockchain technology offers opportunities to thoroughly rethink how we find educational
content and training services online, how we register and pay for them, as well as
how we get accredited for what we have learned and how this accreditation affects
our career trajectory. This paper explores the different aspects of online education
that are affected by this new paradigm. In particular, we investigate the different
scenarios where the use of Blockchain technology can make online education more open
and decentralised, while placing learners in control of their learning process and
its associated data. Additionally, we discuss various approaches to the Semantic Blockchain
and the applications of these approaches on online education. |
