Abstract
The management of high-capacity data, its security, and secure transfer to various storage, whether centralized or distributed, is one of the problems that various researchers are facing on the path towards the digitalization of various services in various public and private institutions. Education is one of the spheres that is in transition to the digitization of services, where more and more attempts are being made to fully digitalize all services in schools and higher education institutions, with the sole aim of increasing quality and providing services to students at all times. The main challenges in this direction are numerous, however, among the most important are security, transparency, integrity, reliability, and privacy as characteristics that are directly related to students. By examining practical use cases and architectural models, this study proposes a conceptual model for synergistic IoT–blockchain adoption aimed at improving learning outcomes, administrative efficiency, and institutional accountability in modern education systems. The development of industry 4.0 and 5.0, in addition to requiring the inclusion of digital devices and the automation of many processes, also requires the inclusion of contemporary technologies such as IoT, blockchain, and AI, along with all their subfields, because at the moment they are the only hope that guarantees above all increased efficiency, productivity, reliability and secure data transfer. Through this paper, we will attempt to review the synergy of these technologies in education, with the aim of offering students more attractive methods of teaching, digitalization of services, flexibility in their schedules, and above all, preserving the privacy and integrity of their personal data. This research explores how tailored implementations of the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain technology, by indicating the AI can enhance the quality and delivery of educational services.
