# Introduction
It is not a secret that the industry valuates the current education system as outdated. By "education system", they mean the syllabi, the tutoring method, and the mismatch of the tutor number to that of the students. A lot of research has gone into this are and people have developed lots of solutions, but the amount of technology that has been leveraged in all of those solutions haven't been optimal. To make the students ready for the industry and also the demand of the ever growing world, the education systems have to be re-structured radically.
# BitSchool – Transforming education
BitSchool is an online education platform that makes use of the two most advanced technologies – Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence. BitSchool aims to offer students with educational options where they are treated according to their intellectual capacity and performance. In this platform, students can sign up and access courses, which are reinforced by artificial intelligence that analyses quizzes and recommendations and governs the marking system, so that the students can get instant feedback on their performance, while reducing the workload of tutors. Some of the most highlighted and attractive features are:
BitSchool Bidding system
One attractive feature of the BitSchool platform is the bidding system, which is an innovative concept, where the tutors and students can quote the lowest price for which they willing to offer/take up a course and can refer to the prices stated by the counter party (students are the counter party for teachers and vice versa) to agree upon the best price for a course.
Location based and On-demand tutor service
Students who want in person attention can request location based tutors, who are tutors who wish to share their location and are willing to offer in-person assistance. This ensures need of the students who favor offline tutoring are also catered to.
On-demand tutoring service is the method by which the service of a tutor can be made available for a short time, for like expert advice on something, short term courses, etc. This is an excellent way to ensure that new tutors earn better reputation by engaging in smaller, less demanding course in their initial period in the platform.
GoGreen fund
The GoGreen fund is an initiative by the BitSchool platform to ensure quality education for the low-income students, by offering scholarships to them. The scholarship fund is primarily collected through the ICO, the transaction fee and also through donations.
# Leveraging AI for Interactive Assessment
Some of the main features that BitSchool offers, making use of AI are:
Assessment
All lessons have linked questions and quizzes which are presented to the students while they are learning a particular topic. The reaction time of students, their performance in the quizzes, the time taken for completion, etc. are evaluated and assessed to decide the grasp a particular student has on the particular topic. An algorithm analyses this data and makes sure that only the questions suiting the comfort level of the student show up in the following quizzes.
Personalized lesson planning
Using the results of the AI algorithms, tutors can create personalized teaching plans for various students. This means that students can follow a schedule tailored to their comfort, spending more amount time for covering harder topics.
The platform ensures that multiple video tutorials, exist in the platform that covers the same concept targeting various level of intellect. The AI algorithms in BitSchool shows video recommendations based on the current user's intellect, that ensures that the student views relevant topics in the level that they understand.
AI assisted marking
The artificial intelligence algorithms in BitSchool also assists tutors for correction and assessment of assignments and quizzes submitted by students. For doing this, the platform has stored multiple answers for the same question in its database. The algorithms matches the submitted answers to these stored answers, and marks them accordingly. This also ensures that the student get instant, yet personalized feedbacks.
# Why blockchain?
The blockchain technology reinforces the credibility and security of each transaction that takes place in the BitSchool platform. Due to its constant self-validation capability, the data stored in the blockchain is secure and free from tampering. Another benefit building the platform upon blockchain is the freedom of using a native token for the platform. Trading using these tokens also reduces the transaction fee per transaction, which ensures lesser costs for the users of the platform. Moreover, issuing these tokens through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) enables the platform to earn the required startup capital to use to build the platform.
# ICO details
The native token of BitSchool is called BitSchool token (BCSH). The ICO details are:
Pre-Sale: 19th March 2018 to 16th April 2018. (Bonus: 35% of purchase amount)Crowdsale: 14th May 2018 to 11 June 2018. (Bonus: 15%, 10%, 5% of purchase amount on week 1, 2, and 3)
# Final verdict
The BitSchool is a platform that is fueled by the most advanced technology that is currently available. The whole platform is adaptive to its users, and this idea has the power to disrupt and transform the existing educational system radically. By integrating the payment with their own token, BitSchool ensures that the current payroll standards are maintained but in a way that all students from every background can access and use the platform to its fullest. The algorithms should be trained such that students should be challenged more and more in each step. The platform, once its algorithms get trained enough, will present a great opportunity for self-learners and will eventually become the education superpower.
