Resumen

During emergencies like COVID-19, maintaining educational quality involves integrating non-specialized online. Therefore, a framework is proposed to improve the authenticity and traceability in the assignation of grades in online classrooms of educational institutions in Perú. The proposed framework will impact students and teachers. The former, will be able to have more confidence in their exam grades, which will avoid request to the professors to review them. The latter will trace their students learning in an organized way, which will allow them to assess them continuously. The framework consists of three phases: (1) design of the blockchain architecture, (2) design of the web application architecture and (3) implementation of the web application. It was validated with the application of two experiments made with the support of twenty Peruvian students and a survey conducted with three experts. The validation results show that the proposed framework reduces the time required for the request of study certificates by 99.96% and the survey results by the experts showed that 'Traceability','Authenticity', 'Performance', and 'Usability' obtained an average rating of 4.83 (very high), 4.7 (very high), 4 (high), and 4 (high) respectively.
