Abstract
This research aimed to assess university students' attitudes toward the implementation of blockchain technology in educational settings. The study used a survey methodology. The research study group comprised 541 students enrolled at diverse universities in Kazakhstan. Data for the research was gathered using the "blockchain technologies in educational environments" scale created by the researchers. The validity and reliability study of the prepared scale was conducted. At every stage of the investigation, the university students who participated provided consent forms to participate in the research. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and an independent groups t-test were used to examine the results. The research indicates that university students exhibit a deficient attitude regarding the knowledge level sub-dimension, the application level sub-dimension, and the overall scale of blockchain technology in educational contexts. This outcome is essential for university students to utilize blockchain technologies in education, as it indicates their limited disposition in both application domains. It has been established that there is no substantial difference in the attitudes of university students involved in the research about blockchain technologies. Students' perceptions towards blockchain technologies in educational settings exhibited a notable variance based on the faculty variable. The notable disparity favors the students of the engineering faculty.
