Abstract

Blockchain technology, with special features of decentralization, immutability, consensus mechanisms, and smart contracts, has been integrated into different areas of digital applications recently.However, its abstract concepts present a steep learning curve for beginners, especially in the absence of online resources that offer dynamic, hands-on learning experiences.In response to this problem, we developed a digital interactive teaching tool using the OwlSpace platform to explain what blockchain truly is in its four core foundational concepts.Interactive operations, guided workflows, and visual simulations are applied in the system to assist the learner in interpreting decentralized architectures, immutability of data interactively, the consensus formation process, and the mechanics behind smart contract operation.The system has also put a focus on conceptual understanding and gamified experiences rather than competitive ones, providing a practical and engineering-focused tool for introductory information engineering students.
