Blockedu

blockedu is a protocol built on-top of the ethereum blockchain and a network of distributed reputation where data is stored in a private and decentralized cloud. blockedu implements a consensus mechanism similar to that proposed by backfeed [cite backfeed] called proof of affordable education. it is an alternative education protocol that can host free--and open source--course management systems (cms) where distributed open collaborative courses (docc), small private online courses (spoc), massive open online courses (mooc), and institution free traditional universities can be explored. the goal of blockedu is to solve some of the apparent issues with current accredited universities as well as online courses in a way that makes quality and reputable education affordable and accessible to all. blockedu offers the ability for anyone to create custom courses or structure degree programs that conform to current academic paths without the centralized trust provided by the current system. blo
