The Blockchain technology in the education sector, can offer several advantages in terms of security, transparency, and collaboration. Recent use cases of Blockchain in education include certification of diplomas, identity verification, data sharing, copyright management, and crowdfunding. However, educational institutions must ensure that data protection and privacy regulations are respected and work closely with stakeholders to ensure a successful adoption of the technology. By exploring these use cases, educational institutions can improve the efficiency and transparency of their educational programs.CEO in Software2 years ago
Great response from Things I would consider in addition to his comments are;
1. Anti plagiarism
2. Global data sharing
3. Research and development across schools and even countries
4. Partnerships and research with government of NGOs.
As more capabilities are developed to allow independent chain development (I.e., Ava Labs subnets) and cross chain workflows (I.e., Chainlink) the potential opportunities are endless.

I agree with both and Mark Thiele . In my travels, I've heard transcript authenticity as the leading candidate for a use case. I'm not sure how much of use are seriously looking at it or have already deployed such solutions.CEO in Software2 years ago
Most importantly in the age of AI we can use the Blockchain to authenticate classroom attendance in real time by time-stamping people in class, we can also time stamp all of class activity and add that to people's certifications . We can also use it to authenticate in real time natural learning processes by humans. This will help the world to sieve AI processed learning from human processed learning. This would prevent people in schools from using Chat GPT 4 to breeze through hard assignments and projects, turning in neatly-constructed work made by AI while they get dumber by the day. This is necessary in order not to cede our human intelligence totally to the machines.Director of IT in Education2 years ago
