Although the fields in which this technology has contributed are wide and diverse, the innovative potential of Web 3.0 in the education field is explored in this chapter and its future implications are assessed and analyzed. There has been a profound impact of Web 3.0 in education services and the amalgamation of Web 3.0 technologies has altogether transformed the education sector and its contribution to society is undeniably important. In adherence to this, this chapter unravels the transformations caused by Web 3.0 in the teaching-learning process.
