Topic: Education in Cryptocurrency (Read 696 times)
In 5-10 years it is possible, but school can start learning about it maybe earlier. But i do not think it is good option for all. More people = more troubles
I am sure that in a few years new courses on blockchain will be introduced at universities.
It's a good idea to teach it, but I doubt it's possible at the moment. You can think about some additional activities that would be for the willing students. Mandatory in this situation makes no sense.

Do you think with the way things are shaping up on cryptocurrency and popularity hitting new heights, should our schooling systems be implementing course and opportunities for young people to learn about this field in depth in school time? Most people i speak to got into cryptocurrency and such through own interest etc
Going forward do you think schools will get up with the times say in the next 5-10 years or will it still be something young people will need to do outside of school time if they want to enhance their knowledge

Hi! I think that there is no need to teach exactly cryptocurrency. It will be more useful to study the basis of cryptography and blockchain (and math underlying). Of course, the knowledge of financial laws is also necessary. However, these disciplines are rather difficult for studying in young age.

Crypto currency has a lot of potentials and can generate jobs, incomes or it can even run a business in the future. If you were to ask me, schools should stay the way it is right now since it was a proven formula to educate young people. However, if someone really wants to learn about bitcoin, there should a group/organization at school who can teach them or at least introduce bitcoin. Bitcoin can be learned by reading articles but it is much better if there will be someone who can really teach you the basics. A group of people trying to learn bitcoin is actually fun. I hope we have that in our country.

I think the way that cryptocurrencies will move into education is if people who are currently successful in the industry take it upon themselves to educate other people. Some people have already developed online classes. Local community colleges often are more than happy to offer special courses if someone comes forward and offers to teach one. If you happen to be a parent of children in school, and you know something about cryptocurrencies, you could contact your children's teachers and see if you could come in and give a short workshop on Bitcoin to the class. A lot of teachers would probably welcome that, so just ask.
I noticed some universities in Australia and Singapore have started to teach their student about crypto and blockchain. I feel that more universities will follow as crypto become more comment.
For me in near future it will be studies like crypto on university cause it is the global scale fuuture money.

I guess, before cryptocurrency will be introduce to formal education, this should be accepted globally and in all the country's first. And the lapses or the disadvantages of it should be fix first.But on a contrary, the concept of cryptocurrency is also good to be teach for business courses.
I agree with you,that crypto-currency must be accepted first in
all of the country so that it can be added to any business related course.
maybe in the future cryto currency can be accepted and be use by the school
or any university around the world.

There is nothing good at school, so you shouldn't wait for this. If you whant to know more about cryptocurrency — you should do it by yourselves.
Maybe it will be as a class in private schools, but public schools will implement these practice in 10 years as a minimum, I think.

I think that Udemy or someone like that already have some sort of online course for crypto. There is too much unknown at this point for this to go "mainstream". Maybe some fancy private schools might incorporate this in their curriculum. Public schools are light years behind from reality as is ...

Hey, thanks for sharing your thoughts on the subject!
My name is Hristian and I am leading the Open Source University ICO at www.os.university.
I believe cryptocurrencies has even bigger potential in education than just being thought as a subject. They have disruptive potential when it comes to modernizing education.
Check out our project discussion at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-open-source-university-pre-sale-ends-31-december-2393582.
I will be happy to keep in touch if we share a common vision.
Best,
Hristian
schools, especially in the early stages, should definitely give a lot of more focus on technological advancements. The problem is that school is always a little be "behind" in the sense that until the "material" (books, study curicculum, lessons) are prepared and officially "implemented" in the schools, the technology is already out of date. And it's the same with Blockchain, it's something new and a completely new concept that has been around since the last eight years, and people don't even know what it is. Until it get implemented in our schools it will take double that time and who know's what new concepts we'll develop in the meantime. The best chance for people to get their head wrapped around it, is to implement it in Universities (which are more flexible) and add them as an important subject in their curriculum. In that way the youth will be somewhat prepare for the blockchain industry and come fresh out of University with very hight prospects.
Why in school? Maybe too early? I guess it would be useful at the university it - for example, as a course in the study of the crypto-currency in technical or economic specialties.. When young people make the first steps in the profession, choose what to do in the future..
Yeah i was thinking more along the lines of a module in computing/IT subjects that are sometimes compulsory in schools, the earlier the young people get introduced i feel the more chance they have of taking it further.

I guess people that are studying in Economics are learning a few stuffs about it, depending on their teacher, if it's a bit open minded. Other than that, I don't think it's necessary. Even now, we are not thought in school about money, USD, Euro and so on. So why bother with crypto?
Because it has promising future, and we all need money ~
I agree with the above statement
but other point above are spot on, there is only a need for education when crypto comes more to the forefront and more for general use! Thanks for the feedback!
