O uso da tecnologia Blockchain na educação

Abstract

Given the technological evolution of today's society, more technological resources began to be used within the field of education. At the same time, blockchain has been expanding to different areas, including education, and can be used, for example, in student certification and permanent academic registration. In this work, a literature review on blockchain technology and the possibilities of application in the field of education was developed, using the academic repositories Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore Digital Library and Capes journals in the literature search. It was possible to observe from the results that the implementation of blockchain in education is feasible, however, the technology is currently more useful as a support tool, given the presence of problems still unresolved, such as system scalability and issues related to ethical practices in the use of blockchain.
