Online Education, the future of learning?

[Text]

Honestly, if I were to be asked, I would still prefer the old system where students go to school because the teacher focuses on his student and it monitors the real performance.  But because of the pandemic, it stopped.  I just notice to others now that their online education is not serious because they expect someone to answer their tasks and have more time for other things than to learn and finish the task immediately.  Like here with us, there is a schedule for obtaining the distribution of modules but no effort is given to read and answer because they have other expectations or help them so there is also nothing to learn.  Students should think that their parents and other housemates are just a guide because they should do that.  But if there is a project using Blockchain, it will still support as long as it will be useful.  Not all the scope of the study can be done by Blockchain.  So it seems that the only outcome is partial and only a few will be discussed as if it were just an option and an alternative as is happening now.  Because after the pandemic, everything will be back to normal, we just don't know when.

The year 2020 made us realize that we should be prepared for anything. So many jobs have been lost, businesses and establishments were closing. Schools have closed entirely as well.

So we are now into this new age that most of the things we are doing are online. Food, grocery, shopping, and most importantly, education. Schools have created modules for what they call distant learning. I know this is not that new, but I am just curious to know if this pandemic will change everything we know about.

I am not new to crypto or blockchain but I don't have any extensive knowledge regarding the technicalities. Do you guys think that there is a use case for blockchain on online education?

I am not entirely sure if this is going to be future of learning because in schools you learn a lot more than just class topics, there are a lot of things that people need to learn before they could actually be a lot smarter and a better person as well, at home you could find everything, there is nothing that would be missing from your classes, you could find topics in any language and you could learn them even from youtube as long as the kid is willing to sit down and learn.

However learning things like friendship, empathy, community knowledge, passion, and many other things do happen in school and when you are at home, you are not learning any of that, this is what I think will cause learning online will not be the main learning method, sure more and more people will learn things from online classes but it is not going to be the main method.

I did the same, for example, to create a Wordpress website, and I had to google many times a day, even though now you can find courses revealing all the aspects within half an hour.   

I agree, but there’re plenty of videos about how to use Wordpress on YouTube

It’s just an example of something that I needed 10 years ago. There wasn’t so much info on YT that time.   

But times have changed, right?

in 2018 there was a project called LOLTOKEN and the concept of the project was related to the world of education.but the project was just a hype and to date there are no recent updates about the project. and this time I heard about STC or Studentcoin. and not much different from the concept of online education. but in real use cases to date no project with online education using blockchain technology can succeed.

I myself am a chess coach and I can say that learning has long gone online. It's more convenient, the quality of education hardly suffers. Of course, live contact is lost, but we live in the 21st century and must adapt to modern requirements!

There different case uses for Blockchain technology contrary to those who thought that it only useful for the in the financial sectors. Educational sector is where the Blockchain technology was meant to recreate becasue there are millions of illegal certificates. Student enrollments, fees payment transparency and student assessments can be made easy by this Blockchain technology. For more knowledge about the Blockchain you can visit YouTube for more lectures.

today students are relying to internet, it think the education system should also start creating courses just like how the computer base teaching companies like the udemy or lynda.com do. just put a series of videos on their website and allow users to login and watch. its like enrolling in a course by subscribing to the video course. the face to face still is the best but the option to do it online is still available.

In this 21st century we should be thinking 9f next level not only in the educational sectors, but in all aspects of our lives. The majority of the world were unaware of the covid-19 that took the whole world by surprise. Our educational system has been majorly run manually which is a major concern. Schools were closed down almost throughput the year 2020 due to covid-19 pandemic. And our Schools calendar year is behind by almost a year. When there is a lot of technology in place.Many schools could not proceed /continue due to non-adequate equipments needed to conduct online classes.

I think with fast changing world we may see decentralized education platforms and even decentralized institutes like shools, colleges and universities so all this education sector is going to change compeltely in 5 to 10 years time.

This pandemic has really changed the world, our jobs, lifestyles and routines. We've lost our physical jobs but online opportunities came up which I think is an advantage since it's more convenient and safer for us during this pandemic. As for me, Online Education is a good beginning and also an eye-opener for everyone to be ready for the developments and changes in the future. It's a good preparation so everyone would know how to deal with the virtual world in the coming days.

Possible, blockchain is really a good alternative for online education. One basic options that could really support, is that parents could send payments through online platform established using digital currency. Cashless form of money can be implemented, so students won't use any physical form of money and viruses will be contained. This time of pandemic, it's not easy for everyone who still studying so we need this idea in order to continue the cycle of life.

Not just the future, it is the now of learning id say. Even people studying academics source information from the internet. People learn how to fix their cars by watching yt.
Learn to code by doing stuff like codeacademy and watching yt.

Yes, but, as a rule, you can find just some general info on YouTube, without any explanations of aspects, or just video ads that look like educational videos but actually invite you to join paid courses. I’m not against paying, but the service should be high-quality.

Hmm, the blockchain is typically integrated in the financing world as it involves the elimination of a third-party consensus and the 'trust' system based on such third-persons. In the online education, however, I do think that knowing where your study material comes from is relatively not that important as what matters is the content of such material.

Now, online education is just the start of learning. People have been adapting to this kind of system due to the ongoing pandemic and virus. Unfortunately, this eliminates the opportunity of venturing out of the open world where you socialize and meet other people from the campus and personally experiencing projects that are complex and technical.

Imagine this- you were to get your license but you are required to study driving. However, since physical contact is prohibited, you are forced to learn driving through modules and videos. I tell you, no matter how many times you read a book about learning how to drive or watch videos, until you get the experience of actually driving, you will never learn how to drive.

teaching knowledge is important in all sectors including crypto but i believe that learning online never reaches the level of teaching in person and then interpersonal sociality is lacking

The problem is what role of blockchain in this case. I see that if blockchain has nothing to do with this field. The education can be done through various ways and blockchain could be the best thing that can be learned by anyone. The blockchain itself needs more r&d do dig the potential in the education purpose.
What you are saying has proven if education doesn't even need blockchain and that should be the correct point.

I have a lot of experience in offline and online education. And offline one is just better and more effective

it all depends on how who is studying. some people even prefer online learning. Have you ever studied specifically about crypto face-to-face? Most of the people here even learn to themselves from YouTube or from people who are very far away. the most important thing is we want to open ourselves to continue to learn how crypto is developing. we have to keep growing in the trade as well as investment. Even in joining the bounty campaign, I think everyone who wants to keep getting their results has to develop themselves.

[disconnectme]

There is no doubt that the future we are all waiting for is here, Information and knowledge is becoming readily available and I believe this online learning is going to disrupt academics system that some of these useless schools will need to go under. What do I want to learn now that I can't learn online through Youtube in particular, so why do I need a certificate that I know will not make me relevant in the world

Online education is a really useful and growing sector because of the covid, but I don`t think blockchain can be used to significantly change the sphere. Blockchain technologies can be useful for universities to avoid cheating from the students side while they are entering it. But such cases are to rare to say that they need a solution. Blockchain can be used in many spheres, but education isn`t the one of the main
