Abstract

With a variety of student and institution focused applications, blockchain technology has the potential to upend existing business processes in higher education. This study aims to investigate educated people's attitudes and actions toward using blockchain technology in higher education. The research recommends expanding the Technology Adoption Model (TAM) to include additional factors like perceived privacy, security, and trust. For the study, a scale that has been verified in the literature has been used. Variance based partial least square structural equation modeling was used to analyze the proposed link in the model, which was based on a survey of 208 respondents. The study's conclusion showed that the model's features have strongly impactable intentions to use blockchain in higher education. Blockchain technology's perception, usefulness, and trustworthiness are all strongly influenced by perceptions of security and privacy. Respondents to the study say that the use of blockchain in higher education makes
the study more secure.
