The use of decentralized identifiers in university course management is explored to address the need for traceability and efficient verification in the educational administration system. Based on the FISCO-BCOS blockchain and WeIdentity decentralized identifiers solution, decentralized identifiers are assigned to administrators, teachers, students, and courses. According to the characteristics of university courses, a course registration model and a credit certification model are designed based on the features of decentralized identifiers enabled by blockchain technology. It grants teachers and students self-sovereignty over their identities, ensures the immutability and traceability of learning records, and effectively verifies credentials. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate that this application model can achieve on-chain recording of courses and provide effective credit authentication.
