What the paper says

This study develops a blockchain-enabled framework to improve educational administration data sharing by addressing persistent challenges related to data silos, security risks, trust deficits, and inefficient approval workflows that hinder cross-institutional collaboration. The approach examines the alignment between blockchain capabilities and data-sharing requirements and designs a consortium-chain implementation pathway that integrates distributed ledgers, smart contracts, encryption, and dynamic authorization across both standardized and emerging scenarios. A multi-province pilot involving 40 institutions was conducted to evaluate impacts on efficiency, security, and user trust. The results demonstrate an 89% reduction in processing time, near-zero internal tampering, substantial decreases in error rates, and significant improvements in perceived data credibility and clarity of rights and responsibilities. These findings indicate that blockchain can function as a foundational trust infrastructure, supporting the development of secure, accountable, and scalable educational data ecosystems.
