The decentralized and safe structure of open data is made possible by the unique and developing technology known as blockchain. The digital transformation that spans all areas of the economy is being driven by this technology and artificial intelligence. In this light, it is important to comprehend how blockchain and artificial intelligence can be used in higher education. The following goal was established to address this issue: to map, through a scoping assessment, how artificial intelligence and blockchain can be used in education as a technology for higher education. To do this, a bibliometric search using the PRiSM scoping review approach was carried out in the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The findings demonstrated that blockchain and AI can be applied to higher education through a smart contract that encourages collaboration and student participation in tasks carried out in a classroom setting. This smart contract also serves to increase machine reliability by creating a chain of information. Additionally, it is determined that these technologies will contribute to the development of a generation that is prepared to work more cooperatively and adopt sustainable attitudes in both local and global contexts to address the complicated issues of modern-day living.
