The results show blockchain technology to solve weaknesses in the field of online education based on Merdeka Campus, namely the issuance of certificates as evidence of student learning outcomes in the form of a formal digital certificate in decentralized E-Learning and insecurity in storage for verification using the Ethereum blockchain.

Abstract

The process of educational informatization in the digital era of big data is one of the significant changes in the transformation of the educational model from traditional classrooms (face to face) to online teaching and learning based, which brings innovations from various e-learning. E-Learning is distance learning that uses computer technology, computer networks and the internet. The E-Learning system in higher education in Indonesia which is still centralized is a problem in developing E-Learning in this research in implementing the Independent Campus Policy, one of the manifestations of student-centered and decentralized learning launched by the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemdikbud). This research takes advantage of blockchain technology to achieve breakthrough E-Learning in Higher Education that is not centralized or decentralized. Blockchain technology provides the advantages of decentralized digital certificate issuance as well as secure storage using the Ethereum blockchain. The results show blockchain technology to solve weaknesses in the field of online education based on Merdeka Campus, namely the issuance of certificates as evidence of student learning outcomes in the form of a formal digital certificate in decentralized E-Learning and insecurity in storage for verification using the Ethereum blockchain. The digital certificate from the transaction will identify block hash, gas usage, block number and block time as different private keys.
