I don't want to introduce my kids to BTC this early. College is a perfect time to introduce them. So maybe college education might start financial and technology based course on BTC. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

i think public/state schools wont want kids knowing too much, but private/prep schools probably would teach it as they are more likely to be the next generation of elitists.

Bitcoin will probably hit public schools the instant the government can figure out a way to fit it into the narrative that they want kids to believe. Until then, I still think using Bitcoin for your kids' allowance will be a good way to teach them about money and budgeting.

How soon will schoolbooks include Bitcoin ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ? and explain our kids about traditional 'money creation' (out of thin air) by the FED, etc ... depends which you have in mind, on collages i am sure they talk of it this year. for sure will in year that start in 2015. For primary school might take even decade.

It's not Bitcoin, but Piggycoin is designed to help teach kids about crypto and is starting to see a little action on the education front: http://www.piggy-coin.com/amillionreasons-youcanlearnanything-khanacademy/ It's a start.I wouldn't hold my breath for bitcoin in textbooks. Rule of thumb is you have to wait 50 years to get something into a textbook, and I'm not certain that's changed all that much since the shift to internet-based education (though you'd think it would). More targeted educational initiatives like piggycoin are probably what's needed.

My sister is 13 years old, just entered to the junior middle school. She told me her teacher gave a lesson about bitcoin. I was really surprised at the news. She learnt what is bitcoin and how to mine it.
Are you sure? Name me the school and the subject they are teaching. I would accept if you are telling me it is part of university research but for 13 yo?

Most countries will avoid the subject of money creation at all costs last thing they want is the future generation of consumers waking up.

high-school.... never.
schools currently dont teach kids how to fill in taxes or teach kids much about true value of money as it is. as if governments would allow bitcoin to become part of curriculum for high schoolers.
although for colleges and universities, bitcoin is already part of some curriculum
This is quite true. When I graduated high school, nobody told me how to those things, how to get a passport, nothing. You had to figure it all out on yourself. They don't even teach any of these in college, unless you go to something related like economy and whatnot. So no, I don't see Bitcoin being teached in the future unless an epic revolution happens where it is included in contemporary history class. Other than that, you'll maybe find it in science related subjects in college.

I don't know if bitcoin will be included anytime soon in the books,especially those for kids at middle or high school.But even for the books in university,I don't see it happening soon due to the fact that bitcoin isn't widely known and there's a strong misconception about it amongst people.

We don't even learn how money is created, I don't think they will learn about Bitcoin either.

You need to send your kid to economics at college for this. It is not so complicated concept for lower education, but you know, you cant rule so easily very educated low class ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

It won't be too long. We'll see btc in the schoolbooks of our kids or grandchildren, or kisds' grandchildren.... As long as we live long enough, the day is coming.

Other than that, you'll maybe find it in science related subjects in college. Economics and finance majors are the most profitable college degrees and will generally provide students the most valuable skills. They generally do not teach students the value of money for individual people but rather the value of money for businesses and corporations and governments. One thing that you will not be taught when you get a degree in economics is how to get a passport LOL

Some university has opened course about BTC.
They gave our college IT starter students 2 euro's worth in BTC at the start of their education. With a training and introduction on how to use it at local BTC accepting places in my hometown.
