evasao Blockchain Ethereum como plataforma para o combate à evasão escolar em tempos de COVID-19

Abstract

This article presents a multidisciplinary pedagogical proposal, in which the Ethereum blockchain is seen as a tool for multidisciplinary projects, mainly involving the disciplines of Distributed Applications, Databases, Computer Networks, and Programming Languages. This proposal introduces the concepts of blockchain and the development of a project using the Ethereum blockchain, within pre-existing disciplines, through gamification. Thus, it is intended to increase the interest and engagement of students in a current subject, avoiding school dropout and its problems increased by COVID-19, and introducing students to the applicability of the Ethereum blockchain in multiple fields. We contributed by presenting a process that uses blockchain technology across multiple disciplines. As a novelty, the interdisciplinary process proposed here is also a software process and a mechanic against evasion. The target audience for this proposal is higher education students—a proposal for a systematized, organized, and described the process for applying a blockchain across multiple disciplines.

Keywords: COVID-19, Blockchain, School dropout.
