It can help education, sure. The first thing which comes to my mind about it is the Blockchain being used to storage in a decentralized way much educational Material for people to download and read whenever they feel it is needed.
Blockchain could also be used to issue education certificates and diplomas electronically by Universities and Schools around the world, in such way it would be quite easy for anyone around the planet the verity the credentials any professional and their history in a highschool.
When comes to transmition of information, the Blockchain still has to compete against the centralized internet channels, it is a long path ahead and I believe it would take for universities and highschools to start to adopt some second layer solution for them to do the operations I mentioned. Very unlikely to happen soon, but it is not impossible, of course.
Topic: Will Blockchain Help Education? (Read 34 times)
Blockchain have a lot of use cases. Infact can be used in almot all the fields. Its like writing the ledger book of history. Every transaction to be written in it, then why not use it in education also. Can be used very extensively in Education. Its just the ways that we have to explore to implement it into the blockchain industry.
If Blockchain can help education, it will be on the data storage I think the matter what the opposite is the case. It is education that can enhance Blockchain to develop to another level and not Blockchain to help education. And if I may ask "how"? Because even the YouTube video you provided didn't give me the clear information I was needed. It is only those who educated create Blockchain and not Blockchain to create education.
I do agree that the video is not quite answer any question related to how Blockchain could improve education.
But I think it could be both way, Education can help blockchain and Blockchain can help education, just like the Internet, Internet can help spread education more easily and then educated people could help enhance the Internet. And the main thing that Blockchain could help is data processing, but there are a lot of things we can do with improved data processing. A more simple example might be the less centralized and more democratic paper and research publishing, or more transaprent fund raising for educational purposes, etc.
