Post by: electrobit on November 02, 2018, 03:09:27 AM
I want to share with you all the Seminary we had today in one of the towns of the Casanare Department in Colombia. We was sharing what Blockchain is and how is it works; with students from high school and analyzing the applications of the Technology in the educational area...

This is done with the Bloqqe Foundation, you all can see the first post about the Foundation in this thread.

It is really good to know that knowledge regarding cryptocurrency and the blockchain technology is being discussed in public. This wilm surely draw much interest to the younger generation which will support the existence of cryptocurrency in the future. This will also have an impact to negate the general perception of crypto being a scam.

Great seminar for freshers!

You just need to keep on doing that, keep on conducting seminars for the next generation so at the very young age people from Colombia will understand why there's a need for blockchain and what it can contribute to their country, economy and to their own growth.

when doing seminars, its great. its hands on face to face comunication.

but remember "know your listener"
for instance the example above is school kids,
dont waffle about the tech science of university level cryptography if they are only highschool level

dont waffle about blockchain use cases of medical/banking.. kids dont know the behind the scenes of these, instead talk about educational benefits eg exam/test logging. imagine a blockchain where their grades are credits.. literally tokens that at graduation they could then spend... that soon peaks their interest more so then the offtopic waffles of things unrelated to them

apart from that. make it a challenge or game to get them thinking of if they formed a team/group. what things can they come up with. get them thinking about how they can get involved rather than just make it a sit and listen to some strange guy with a power point presntation

They look young; however, all seminaries Bloqqe Foundation made are for highschool student.

Thank you for your comment. :)

I don't think the kids are going to learn about all these blockchain. You will have to teach them with a little bit of being bold and funny at times to get their attention. Kids to day has the attention span of only 30 minutes and that's probably the longest. Teach them the concept of money first also if would be  fun to see how banks prints the fiat easily and then introduce paypal and so on.

Conducting these seminars to the students that doesn't have idea will open their minds that this great tech would be the new trend and they have to ride it.

They´re not "kids" at all, the pictures are from high school people, anyway I appreciate your comment and opinion and the Seminary was succesful, they learnt too much and was very interested in these new topics... Regards!
