Is this the right way to teach them?

[Artemis3]

We all know how worked hard Satoshi Nakamoto made the blockchain, for the ease of all of us, should we not do anything for this?
So the answer is yes, we too should do something.

That's why I and some of my friends have decided that we will. We will build a small academy with only two or three rooms, where we will tell people about blockchain, without any fees.

I want to know this from you, is this a good idea? Please tell me if this is not the right way.

We can only invest two or three months for this Academy.


Lessons:
How blockchain works.
How to send or receive.
How to buy/sell cryptocurrencies ( Trading).
What is the private Key.
What is the difference between Coins and Tokens.
What is ICO or IEO.

If its not sustainable it will cease to exist quickly and it would not make any sense. You might as well do the same on social media or streaming video where at least the teaching will remain online for anyone to see later and not limited to "3 rooms".

It might make more sense if you intend to make videos from it, knowingly that without any funds you'll probably close it after 1 class anyway.

And you need the most important lesson of them all (no.1) What is Bitcoin. If you are not willing to talk about Bitcoin, don't come talking about Satoshi.

Thanks for your suggestion bro perfect point, Actually there are a lot of videos on YouTube for this, but I want to educate my local community

i think this is a good idea to support bitcoin and if you want to educate local it will be hard and expensive
it's better if you will make a website and make it online provide everything they need in 1 website
then told them to contact you if they have some question and just organize group session once or twice a month
you can make it with lower cost and can be sustained without many expenses

[pawanjain]

If your sole moto is to teach people about blockchain and the bitcoin then you have many other options to try.
For instance you can make videos regarding the topics you listed and post them on social media.
You can also conduct little seminars and get togethers and meetups which will encourage people to learn about blockchain.
You can also hire some volunteers and host an event and teach people about blockchain in areas where people have less knowledge about crypto.
These are just few options whereas you can explore many more options. Teaching has no boundaries.

I don't want to earn from this. I and my friends want to convince people.

You are very kind, especially with free, without fees.  with a long enough time span, is that accompanied by direct practice?  for example directly applied wallet creation, etc.?

In addition to technical matters that you have compiled as learning material, it is also a good idea to include information about the risks and types of fraud in using cryptocurrency, such as MLM, seed hackers, Ponzi, etc.  thus the orientation is not merely about profit, and has a strong mentality and preparation in dealing with losses.  because many people end up hating cryptocurrency because of expectations too high without understanding the risk, when the expectations do not match reality then it makes them disappointed and says cryptocurrency is dangerous.  understand that too.

[DoublerHunter]

The first reply on the first page was right, that too much for expenses if you build a building just for the academy and educate people regarding blockchain for free. This facility is not necessary if everyone is easy to access the internet, which is a simple click and browse you will see how blockchain it works. Conducting a seminar in different places is a good idea but you need to spend some of your money on transportations in traveling.

[Harlot]

This kind of academy would be more effective if the people who you are trying to teach are already familiar or at least know what you are talking about. Since no one would really be interested from lessons like this even if they are free. Aside from that is your country even considered as a crypto-friendly country or are they even aware what cryptocurrencies are? Because if they aren't then teaching them about Blockchain and cryptocurrencies wouldn't matter at all since your country isn't even prepared for the changes, the teachings they will receive would be with no use when there is not adoption happening for your country. So maybe see first if your country is currently at least moving in the right direction before you start building your academy.

YouTube videos or any other video tools for educating someone will never be enough , specially to those people who have zero knowledge about cryptocurrency in general. It will always be better if there's someone who could dictate every bit of details and someone that the audience could interact with.
Anyway, this is a good idea, but I think building up a small academy this early will drain your budget specially you guys are shouldering everything. A certain venue like renting a function hall are a good start up while you're still gathering interested audiences.

[crossabdd]

There is nothing wrong with your plan. it is good. giving people knowledge about crypto. it's just that, in my opinion it would be more interesting if it was an open explanation. so that more people can join. for example providing education in a meetinghouse. so you can give knowledge to more than 100 people in 1 crypto education session.

1. Yeah, teach them the basics of blockchain. Let them know why it is better than the traditional currency.
2. Before teaching them how to send/receive, teach them about different wallets.
3. I don't think trading is actually necessary at all. At least for now since they are all beginners.
4. Not just private keys, the public keys and its importance (include digital signatures too).
The rest two are not needed to be honest.
Lastly, you forgot the main thing. Teach them how to keep their wallets safe!

[xiboothrezi]

As many members said above, it would be better and more effective to hold a seminar, between 2-3 days I think is sufficient to maximize all the material rather than having to take months. Moreover, you do this voluntarily right? I think it is more efficient both in terms of cost, time and effort.
Do not forget to provide material about the risks in investing with cryptocurrency so that those who are just learning to understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem better and are not only profit-oriented but also mentally prepared to deal with losses.

[Kelvinid]

I appreciate how'd you create such plans to help promote crypto usage. It needs a huge capital to start with but why not to facilitate seminars/training in a certain place to save more, you'll just need to rent a place where you launch your event. Or you will have to create some promotional activities online just like on youtube, twitter or FB. But only I could ask is that don't make any false statement that could make you being ignored.

~~ We will build a small academy with only two or three rooms, where we will tell people about blockchain, without any fees. ~~

It is actually a great idea but it should need a big amount of money + need permission from the local government. I am sure that you won't have an illegal academy, right? Anyway, in what country are you? Is Bitcoin/Crypto/Blockchain legal in your country? You must think about the permission first. Plus, for a long term plan, the academy will need a regular big amount. Where do you get the capital?

>I think the most reasonable way is by creating a local community. It doesn't need a big amount of money like the academy. And it can accommodate all ages.

[dothebeats]

Not that I'm belittling your idea but in all seriousness, starting off with comprehensive videos informing the general masses about bitcoin and the blockchain is already more than good. I know that there are tons of them out there on YouTube but perhaps you can come up with simpler, more concise and more interesting video that people can actually digest. If you have the means to build these facilities, go ahead and do it. If your sole interest is to spread the word and not gain profit from it, then you're on the right path. However if you want to monetize your good deeds, I'm telling you that expect a loss already since only a little percent of the population is actually keen and interested in learning bitcoin and the blockchain as of this moment.

[Wintersoldier]

I highly believe that the best step to start cryptocurrency market adoption is by ourselves, doing these step, we have many options to execute our plans to make this thing possible. But I wanted to ask first, is the academy you are trying to build requires a tuition fee? Because I think the topics are also possible to be discussed in a different seminars instead of a same thing such as a course offered in college which needs to tackle deeper topic.

[joinfree]

Hey, you don't need that long amount of time to teach them these. If they really want to learn more about Bitcoin and the blockchain technology then maximum 3 days should be enough in doing this. And I hope they have shown at least some interest into this technology before you taking on this quest. If not then you are wasting your time mate, they are likely not going to pay much attention as they might see this as a burden

The mass adoption will not easily become successful just because there is now awareness that keep spreading. Why did I say that? People will not easily adopt something that they do not fully understand. Even if they are aware to what is bitcoin and blockchain they will still ignore it. There should be a "trigger", the trigger that I mean is the thing that will encourage someone to acauire and patronize it. They will only have this trigger if their mentality is broad where they seeking financial IQ. They will get encourage easily if they became interested to it.

[marcous]

There is no harm in sharing knowledge. If you want to provide such knowledge, then your target must also be millennials who understand the technology and can receive the knowledge you want to share. Because for now, it's actually not easy to invite people even though our intention is only to share knowledge except to the closest people, I guess.

[darkangel11]

I advise you to first try it out in a rented space. Maybe try with some free courses at schools. Ask principals if they would like someone to tell children about blockchain and decentralized money, for free.
Then apply for sponsorship. Don't ask people to buy entry tickets or pay for courses upfront. It's always better to ask for donations and do these things for free until you become recognized.

I always admire people who are taking the initiative to reach out to other people and then have them a good opportunity to learn more on the blockchain and cryptocurrency. Now, I am really encouraging you guys to offer this course for free. However, to make things sustainable, you can also be giving a separate course for people who have the money and who are interested to invest in cryptocurrency, then charge them for some minimal fee. With a regular funds coming in the program can be sustainable and then can be reaching more and more people in the long run. Again, this is a good project and I am wishing you guys the best and more power. I am hoping the same thing can also be happening elsewhere. Education is always the key to anything much more so in cryptocurrency and the blockchain where definitely there is that learning curve which can be a stumbling to many.
