- Abstract:
- The metaverse is a collective common space for interaction created as a result of the convergence of physical reality and virtual space, including augmented reality and the Internet. The potential of the metaverse in the field of education is of growing interest, and many researchers are exploring ways to improve the effectiveness of student learning, while reducing time and labor costs to ensure the educational process. However, the systemic and technological aspects of providing education through the metaverse remain insufficiently developed. To fill this gap, the paper presents the concept and architecture of the metaverse, combining artificial intelligence technologies, Web3 and blockchain technology to create a learning environment. The existing approaches to the creation of intelligent systems and gamification of learning, as well as some projects for the creation of a metaverse, are analyzed. The purpose of the proposed approach to creating a metaverse is to design a virtual learning space that begins with reflecting the physical world, storing user learning trajectories, knowledge trees in the blockchain, and providing a secure and open community. The main stages of the metaverse development are presented, including cloning, expansion and integration of physical and virtual components, as well as blockchain technologies. It is noted that by now the necessary prerequisites have developed in Russia for the realization of the metaverse as one of the foundations of future education.

- Abstract:
- The article is devoted to the blockchain technology that that has been booming in recent years. The purpose of the article is to review the literature on the modern possibilities of using blockchain technology in the education system. A brief description of blockchain technology is given, modern directions for its development are put forward. The article analyzes the possibilities and prospects of using blockchain to solve some problems in the education system, describes the features and advantages of using blockchain technology in the field of education that are known today. The positive changes in the educational process, which may result from the use of this technology are defined. The article discusses the shortcomings and problems associated with the use of blockchain technology in education. Methods and materials: a systematic search of literature on Google Scholar databases was performed, works on the use of BT in education were reviewed, and materials on blockchain technology in education that are available on Research Gate were analyzed. The authors outline that most projects using the blockchain in education are under development. Currently, there is already data on the implementation of blockchain technology in the form of confirmation of the authenticity of documents on education, a student’s personal card, confirmation of accreditation of an educational organization and intellectual property, student identification. Results. 67 papers were identified in the Google Scholar database and 80 publications in the eLibrary database. A large number of online conversations on the topic under study were revealed, and 25 publications turned out to be full-text journal articles. The authors noted that every day there are new articles, reports about the organization of startups, the formation of research teams working to study the possibilities of using BT in the education system. Conclusions. The authors summarize the possibilities of using blockchain technologies in the field of education. The interdisciplinary approach and cooperation of educators with blockchain specialists will keep up with the booming digital technologies.
