I think that Governments of developed Nations MUST add a blockchain course to the basic education of any Citizen... starting from elementary schools, and why not, with some basics concept also in nursery.

A young brain in it's primordial state is the base for any further development. Plus everyone should have this education, like an essential human right.

What do you think?

Interesting point. From where I am from, NEM has started spreading the word to universities Schools Offering NEM Blockchain Courses in the Philippines. I think more developed countries can start adding blockchain into their curriculum for elementary education as it is harder for third world countries to implement this. 

Found this video by the way which can be used to teach blockchain to kids - What is the Blockchain? (for kids)

Elementary students and even nursery doesn't seem to understand what blockhain technology is. Believe it or not, blockchain is hard to understand. Their young minds isn't yet ready for depth learnings like blockchain. However, they can start teaching basic education about this from junior highschool and above. I think they can probably understand how this blockchain technology and this digital cryptocurrencies will work in our lives.

Not necessary. Blockchain, if used by companies, private businesses, and even government agencies could already be an easy thing to learn for everyone. And whether we like it or not, we are on that direction. But a course related to technology, especially information technology, could very well integrate blockchain into their courses, the basics at least. The nitty-gritty part could be offered to major courses on that line. It is too much to offer it starting from elementary and even nursery. That is an additional burden to their young minds.

lol yeah that is probably right and a deep way of seeing, i really like deep ways of seeing stuffs.

But with some professions it could be like, really basic. What is it? It works for something, right? Then, for what? And that's it. It's pretty obvious that education in this and other relevant matters will be extremely needed and education in other less relevant matters that to be completely honest are waste of time can easily be replaced, it would just take some time.

Also, it's pretty simple. If some teachers wants to resist to innovation they can go work for a caveman and step aside. The educational system really needs improvements, a lot of potential is being wasted at the moment.
