Bitcoin in High School Syllabus

[maydna]

Finally, bitcoin education will be introduced in high school. I'm impressed with that. Yes, by giving and teaching information about bitcoin, it helps the adoption process in the younger people so they can prepare their future. Those four video questions will be a great time to have a discussion with the student as I am sure that the student will have a big curiosity about the new technology.

But perhaps, we need to see how good the results after that so there will be more bitcoin education in high school in many countries. Once this education success, the other high school will do the same for their student, and that will make more people or young generation will know about bitcoin, and in the end, they will use bitcoin too.

According to the cryptocrunch: https://cryptocrunchapp.com/news/bitcoin-officially-included-in-french-high-school-syllabus/

Bitcoin cryptocurrency education will be implemented to French High School Syllabus. It is a new way to introduce money to students.

They are focusing on four Video questions:
1. Can bitcoin be a replacement to Euro?
2. Is bitcoin the currency of the future?
3. Is bitcoin is a currency like others?
4. Do you have to trust your currency?

Regarding this, it would be a good start to educate students about money and trust.

What's your opinion about this? Should cryptocurrency as a whole and blockchain be in schools curriculum?

I think this is a good idea in many ways I already see and experienced seminars about bitcoins and they are really informative. Cryptocurrency could be a subject in a way if you could have a piece of prior knowledge about cryptocurrency you could start something in a scratch and using it you could be more successful in the future also educating student is a good thing because cryptocurrency could be our future when it comes to money. We could only teach this thing to some students who have related courses if the course of the student don't relate to cryptocurrency no need to teach them is kind of stuff.

i am wondering who is going to teach these in schools though? do they have trained teachers in bitcoin field familiar with cryptography and blockchain that could teach them or do they plan on starting to train them?

I understand they will have to train the teachers first on blockchain technology courses and I think the syllabus they will be using will be patterned or similar to the blockchain technology and cryptography courses offered by online education entities such as Coursera or MIT OpenCourseWare or maybe they might get to partner with leading universities that also offer with similar online courses.

Of course, I think before they even implement this course they have already figure things such that. They have trained their teachers and probably applied them to online courses regarding crypto and blockchain technology.
They won't start implementing this to their syllabus if they don't even know to themselves what bitcoin is, it's ridiculous if they do that kind of thing.

Probably they have. Because they won't apply it if they are not still ready for it. The possible teachers here are the technology related teachers. It might be not too many to teach every high school students in France but they can also learn. Teachers studies their topic before entering the classroom, so they can also study it first. Here in my country, i really want them to teach blockchain in schools. To give the students an awareness. And I envy that your country already had a plan of doing it.

Wow, so many chiming in with reference to block chain / crypto instead of Bitcoin.
Seems like block chain is just a buzz word and distraction. There is no block chain without Bitcoin. We are redefining value and possibly money.  Bitcoin's block chain is so important because it is open, border-less, censorship resistant, neutral to state and politics, and public to everyone. https://coinbet.com/news/what-are-the-5-pillars-of-open-blockchain-292  
I pray the teachers get a better education than block chain and crypto for their students.

I believe that the school curriculum should contain elements of teaching the basic principles of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. For those students who are interested, it is necessary to conduct lessons on programming blockchains, cryptocurrencies and their interaction with the rest of the Internet. These lessons will give students a real benefit and can become the basis of their future profession.

its too early for me that Highschool student needs to learn about cryptocurrency and Blockchain ,because this market has a lot of thing to offer that only mature people must learn and letting these kids has this opportunity is a really serious matter,why not let the College have this since they are more mature and ready to face the world in all aspects?if the Kids learn about investments and the opportunity to earn here they might not have interest in studies but instead they will seek for something that will [provide them earnings ,because we knew how teenager think and they want to be liberated in younger years and this will let them have what they wanted

This will be the best news ever bitcoin has achieved in case if this turns into reality as a whole generation will be aware of bitcoin and crypto which is still something unrealistic for most of the people who have no idea about crypto. This will empower the future generations to prosper in crypto and understand how fiat is controlled and this lead to a digital revolution in the future. But they should be taught about it as a tours of study and merits and demerits of crypto rather than teaching them about crypto as a investment scheme.

There are syllabus in economics where they educate students about money but including cryptocurrrency and blockchain in school curriculum depends upon the government and if they allow then we will see that in the future, blockchain is a hot topic and many countries are developing and doing research on it and hence we will see that in school or college syllabus in the future.

How interesting is that. Honestly, what I think with the current curriculum we have in general teaches us only how to be a good laborer but subjects regarding financial management is lacking. We should teach the youth how to manage their finances well especially those who are struggling financially like the poor families.

in my opinion this is one of the good ways done by the French state to advance digital technology in their country by applying bitcoin and other crypto currencies to the syllabus in schools, France became one of the first countries to apply bitcoin to the syllabus in schools today , with the existence of such a school program it might be beneficial for students to become more independent and not burden their parents anymore to pay school fees.

Will prefer to study blockchain to back in my college days  as I'm using more of this blockchain products than the degree I graduated in college since I was able to earn more in trading than my job. It will be a good start for their generation to start developing more effectively projects from blockchain.

Well it's a great step in the right direction and much more important if we see the comprehension blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies as difficult. Bringing the exposure of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology to the basic level would improve the understanding of people about it and its use. However, i hope they really put strict measures so that these adolescents don't get scammed, you know adolescents are very inquisitive and boisterous.

[Ailmand]

This is good, they must have seen that cryptocurrency will play a huge role in the future so it will be worth it to teach these students about cryptocurrency. It is a broad topic so starting learning about crypto will be beneficial to them. Starting to teach kids about the latest technology is good, so they can be aware of it at a young age. I think as time goes by a lot of countries will put cryptocurrency and blockchain technology in their curriculum, so that students will be able to follow the latest trend.

[Clark05]

If they really include bitcoin to their syllabus it is good for us because it can help to promote to their citizens especially student from the high school but also good to add in college level.  Im just hopinh in my country Philippines will add also a lesson such as bitcoinor crypto related topics so I become interested more in the discussion of my teacher. The othwe country possible also I think to add to their syllabus the bitcoin in the future.

[Darooghe]

That's great news and it shows that adoption is inevitable. more and more institutions are added to win the race for knowledge about Blockchain and Cryptos in general to be able to form better talents that ultimately push the economy of each nation. Countries like South Korea are well advanced on this. besides the pro-blockchain government alliances that we see for example in the Asian country with FLETA and the Seoul Metropolitan government in hospitals and clinics of the nation for decentralized medical records under the blockchain of FLETA, to mention one of the hundreds of use cases.

I think to be added in school's curriculum is a big improvement for Cryptocurrency. This will enlighten the young ones what cryptocurrencies is all about, this is a beginning of massive adoption. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has a possibility of being used in the future thus being taught in school help children to use this type of technology. With regards if bitcoin will replace Euro I think not, Bitcoin could only become an another form of payment but it will not entirely replace the traditional form of currency which is fiat.

I'd agree, economics subject is somehow related to cryptocurrency. If the school has decided to include this and relate the subject correctly for the students to easily understand, then this is a good choice for including bitcoin or cryptocurrency in their syllabus.

It is a good step for advance knowledge of the students but at least for senior high school right?but still this one great move of French government to let Cryptocurrency/Bitcoin to get closer to the youngsters and they will learn the possibility of profiteering in their younger years,things that we don’t have when we were at their ages

So I support this initiatives and hoping all countries will adopt this as well for the welfare of our children’s today and in future

This is a good adoption of bitcoin as it helps young people today to become more aware that the internet has money like crypto curency. This can be of great help because surely as they grow older they can bring knowledge to crypto and share it with their children and friends.

But I think that a stronger explanation and study needs to be taught to young people because they can't learn it right away if they are not sure if it will help their lives.

Because those questions are difficult to answer nowadays because they are all based on speculation and based on what is seen.
