Blockchain, IoT and Fog Computing for Smart Education Management

Abstract

The objective of this research is to present the use of blockchain technology, the internet of things and fog computing to develop the potential of school management for smart education. By using the blockchain to record and store various pieces of information the organization will create credibility of administrative data in all departments and will reduce corruption. Data can be examined transparently, especially the financial and budget management and procurement of durable articles. Regarding the academic work and registration, it can be used to store learners' information, educational history, information of enrollment, academic results, and participation in the various activities of the educational institutions. It can create credibility in the management of information about content, learning and ability assessment results that students receive, and these can be recorded and stored in a blockchain that can be safely distributed. In addition, IoT and fog computing are integrated with AI systems embedded in various modern devices to be applied in environmental management and smart education management. IoT and fog computing help to support and respond quickly to questions about the use of all types of equipment for real-time management of executives, personnel and students, as well as creating new work and learning styles that can solve the situation of dangerous communicable diseases, such as the COVID-19 situation, or can solve emergency situations that will emerge in the future by working and studying from home. It can organize and share resources for work and learning together to access the organization from outside anywhere and at any time

A Research on the Realization Algorithm of Internet of Things Function for Smart Education

“…From the above literature, it can be seen that the current research on smart education mainly adopts artificial intelligence methods or Internet of ings technology to realize smart education systems, such as the image detection function of deep learning or the role of sensors and cloud computing of Internet of ings technology [24][25][26]. However, most of the studies do not really consider the behavioral information of students in the classroom and then propose the learning content of interest [27].…”

Building a Smart Education Ecosystem from a Metaverse Perspective

“…Eventually, a logical connection is formed between the underlying environment, resources of the smart education ecosystem, and the high-level scenarios and applications. A sustainable, complete, and balanced system architecture is then created to promote the virtuous circle and for the development of the smart education ecosystem [25][26][27][28][29][30]. (See Figure 1).…”

Mapping Knowledge Domain Analysis in Smart Education Research

“…In the modern era, information technology has greatly promoted the upgrading of smart education. Many researchers proposed using blockchain technology, the IoT, and Fog Computing to better realize smart education [51,52]. Cluster 6 (parental attitude) and cluster 7 (early care) suggest that in the process of promoting the practice of smart education, it is necessary that researchers fully consider the children's beliefs and parents' attitudes and pay attention to children's development and early care.…”
