Learning paths managed by Blockchain.
The project aimed at helping students select their own learning paths. Learning paths were a specific sequence of Edublocks (learning activities) first-year students at the University of Barcelona could choose in a course “Uses, possibilities and limits of information and communication technologies in social education”. Students were provided with a technology-based network of learning communities of peers, teams of teachers and tutors and a large set of learning Edublocks. At the center of the network we placed an app that allowed teachers and tutors to give very differentiated quantitative and qualitative feedback to their students which turned out to be of great value for students who were confronted with the task of organizing their learning paths during their first semester. Results showed that students were very satisfied with the feedback they received while at the same time, teachers indicated that using the app did not place an additional burden on them.
