Potential Abstract: This study investigates the intersection of aesthetics, constructivist pedagogy, contested identities, and blockchain technology within the context of an educational regime. Drawing on the principles of constructivism, which emphasize the active construction of knowledge through social interaction and personal experience, this research seeks to understand how the incorporation of aesthetics and blockchain technology can impact the formation and negotiation of identities in educational settings characterized by competing perspectives and values. By leveraging blockchain as a decentralized and transparent platform for recording and verifying data, this study aims to explore how the integration of aesthetic elements can facilitate the creation of shared narratives and promote a deeper engagement with diverse perspectives and experiences. Through a qualitative inquiry, this research will examine how educators and students navigate contested meanings and values in educational practices, and how blockchain technology can be utilized to enhance trust, transparency, and collaboration within these contexts. The findings of this study aim to contribute to the ongoing discourse on the role of aesthetics and technology in shaping educational experiences and fostering inclusive learning environments.
