Abstract

This chapter aims to analyse the potentialities of blockchain in education. It is an exploratory study focused on blockchain technology applied to European Union education policy. To achieve this goal, a bibliometric analysis was done to identify studies already done on blockchain applied to education, and the main research items studied and how they can contribute to policy definition. The research question of this study is: What kind of contributions for policy emerge from the research that has been made on blockchain in education? The main findings are focused on getting a diploma, on the assessment, and the formative evaluation, but also related to the learning process in a distributive way to facilitate the educational management process.
