• The intervention of technology in every sector
  has given us some staggering development and
  paved the way for huge transformation.
  Blockchain, which is the latest buzz permeating
  different sectors, is also disrupting the
  education sector positively. In this blog, we
  will be exploring how Blockchain is creating a
  difference in the world of education and how it
  can benefit this sector.

Blockchain and Education

• Blockchain is the distributed ledger technology
  that provides a transparent and immutable
  platform for data storage. Now, this platform can
  be used for a multitude of purposes, from
  transaction records to data and other
  information. It is because of this versatility of
  Blockchain that the education sector can also
  reap the benefits.

• Schools and colleges have to deal with a
  tremendous amount of data, which can be either
  student records, marks, personal information,
  certificates, etc. Though we have the digital
  platforms for storing all this information, the
  vulnerability of the current system is very much
  evident.

How Will Blockchain Solve This?

• Blockchain finds widespread use in the education
  sector. Here is a quick overview of how
  Blockchain is influencing education domain

• 1. Diplomas and certificates One of the key uses
  of Blockchain lies in storing the academic record
  and certificates of the students. It not only
  ensures the safety and security of data, but at
  the same time, it also prevents any kind of data
  alteration. All the information is stored in the
  form of blocks, and each block is associated with
  the other, thus even if there is an act of single
  block change, it will impact the other. All this
  makes it easy to decipher whether the data is
  authentic or has been altered.

• 2. Identity- The growth of learning apps has led
  to the rise of the problem of identity
  management. There are several platforms that help
  the user keep their identity around them. It
  allows the user to access learning apps and
  services on the decentralized app.

• 3. Infrastructure security- Besides the student
  data, school management also shares a lot of
  information within the system. With Blockchain as
  a platform for data exchange, you can be assured
  of data security and makes the system free from
  attack.

• 3. Cloud storage- Students and teachers who are
  involved in research often need to store a lot of
  data and information. So, why not use DLT
  blockchain, which provides a safer and secured
  platform for data storage.

• The way ahead- The use of Blockchain in the field
  of education is not just limited to this use. You
  can find many other applications emerging in the
  market every day. It has led to the demand for
  Blockchain experts who will help in the
  development of such apps that will eventually
  benefit the education sector.
