Challenges To Incorporating Blockchain Technology In Education Sector Training Ppt

Slide 1

This slide showcases multiple difficulties faced while using blockchain technology in education sector. It highlights challenges such as rate of adoption, scalability, security, cost, and legal constraints.

Instructor’s Notes:

The challenges while using blockchain in education system are:

Rate of Adoption:

• The implementation of blockchain can only be accepted if the majority of institutes and employers trust the technology
• The students will benefit from blockchain only if the institutes they are applying to will accept their legitimacy via a blockchain-based application

Scalability:

• All educational institutes have a lot of student and graduates data which can make blockchain scalability a problem
• Each transaction requires peer-to-peer verification, which takes a lot of time. It slows down the speed of transactions on the blockchain

Security:

• Blockchain-based systems provide security as a major characteristic, but it does not imply that blockchain is impenetrable
• Data stored on the blockchain is sensitive, and the institutes should be careful with what they store and how they preserve it
• It requires private or encrypted data on the blockchain to keep it safe from hackers

Cost:

• Adopting blockchain would cost money in computing power and modifying existing infrastructure
• Many institutes lack the knowledge to manage student data on the blockchain platform; this requires training that will involve initial cost

Legal Constraints:

• Regulatory bodies may or may not accept the blockchain-based system due to its decentralized functioning
• Many governments fear decentralization; these will avoid legalizing blockchain-based software
• Start-ups using using blockchain-in-education face multiple challenges in ensuring that their product complies with data protection laws

Slide 2

This slide highlights the challenges faced while using blockchain in the education industry due to slow rate of adoption. It explains that blockchain implementation in the education sector is difficult as it requires all institutes to trust the technology.

Slide 3

This slide highlights the challenges faced while using blockchain in the education industry due to issues over scalability. It explains that all educational institutes have a lot of student and graduates’ data, which can make blockchain scalability a problem.

Slide 4

This slide highlights challenges faced while using blockchain in the education industry due to security concerns. It explains that despite security being a characteristics of blockchain, it can still be breached, which is a major issue. 

Slide 5

This slide highlights the challenges faced while using blockchain in the education industry due to its cost. It explains that adopting blockchain could cost money in computing power and modifying existing infrastructure.

Slide 6

This slide highlights the challenges faced while using blockchain in the education industry due to legal constraints. It explains that it many governments will not want to legalize blockchain-based software as they fear decentralization.
