This is a good thing. A very good opportunity for all these students. To teach the cryptography field is a great and wonderful work. Frankly, I have the same thinking as you. I plan to establish a specialized institute for teaching cryptography and everything related to it. I wish you success.
Maybe in the near future when Cryptocurrencies are widely used universities and schools will create a special course for this, we need proper education on the subject of Cryptocurrency although there are many videos on Youtube and many articles only it's different when taught in school.

It's a nice idea you've got there and choosing an almost or already graduating students is a good pick as they are already used to the learning culture and can actively practice what they learn by means of participation.
Though, we don't know what your lesson plan looks like, do ensure to take them through the various terminologies involved in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a field and in the simplest of terms without ambiguity.
It aids for better understanding.

Well, to be fair, it is generally accepted advice that the younger you are, the riskier your investments should be. I understand your point as to not encourage youth to piss away their money by investing into crypto, but I'd argue that might be more beneficial for them to become more financially literate, and learn more about investing. There is no guarantee that they will lose any of the money they invest. Personally, I'd rather a kid lose 1k in crypto at a very young age where money doesn't matter, than them living 50 years of their life before learning about what real investments are. But that's just me 
Maybe we can teach younger people to invest in crypto, but we must tell them about the risk, so they can understand and don't make a rash decision. They need to learn about bitcoin investment or crypto investment to think and manage their money to be used for the investment. If they lose the investment, they can learn from the mistake, so they can have the experience and will not repeat the other mistake.

you can let them invest them and less than 3 years.
You want students at the age of 14 to invest in something that can also cause high losses? You know nothing about the economic background of the students. How can you be sure that they will stay invested in Bitcoin and not switch to Shitcoins with more gain but at even higher risk?

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea from OP. But it can also become problematic.

golden idea, cryptocurrencies will be their best investment, instead of spending money at graduation parties, buying a new car, looking for a job, or traveling, they can invest it and buy all of these things with a return on investment.
Educate them about the economy and how bitcoin works more than how you know it.

This is a very good concern your plan will certainly be much better but how you will teach them about bitcoin is unknown to us. If you have taken a financial advantage then there are many poor talented people who will not be able to learn bitcoin However, education through blockchain technology will move the young society forward huge later they will become more interested in working in crypto and the demand for crypto will increase.
July 07, 2020, 07:17:20 AM
I think the idea is basically a good one. But I still don't quite understand what your goal is? Do you want to teach the students how to buy Bitcoins, for which applications the Blockchain is good or do you want to explain the monetary system to the students?
In general it is a difficult topic, because people of that age are more likely to see the potential gain than the loss.

You can as well suggest topics I can cover time to time. I will be dedicating 3 weeks for the campaign. I hope to update the forum about the development too.

I think you should consider Blockchain technology to be part of your lessons. Show them how blocks work and how Bitcoin and crypto were connected with it. It was a really broad and vast topic to be discussed in three weeks yet if you could really explain it well, it would only take days to make them understand it. BTW, would you tell us what topics have you already written in your plan and what are the scopes of your lessons? There are things in crypto that are complex that you might find a difficulty to teach them soon.
Please don't teach them that Bitcoin can be their source of income, soon they might struggle with such ideology.

This is a very good initiative. It's a friend of mine and thought to silo but in the end it didn't work out. I hope your honest plan will succeed. I wish you all the best. I would like you to open a coaching center where you will be taught the details about Bitcoin. Where many poor young generation people tell you about bitcoin. It can help your area and country to reduce unemployment. Thank you again for undertaking such a great project.
Kind intentions to educate young generations with cryptocurrency, interest will jumped once this
people realized the potentials of this system.
There are many usages especially if they go deeper and start learning blockchain technology. This
initiative will be appreciated in the long run
next generations students will begin using blockchain/bitcoin.
July 07, 2020, 03:18:13 AM
This is a really good move. Congratulations on making my plan a hit But i feel the simplest thanks to teaching students about crypto is to burn in batches. this may increase everyone's attention and help one to unravel the matter of another. the scholars won't be disappointed Everyone will find how to urge obviate their frustration and unemployment Before that, the essential idea must be applied to everyone.

Well guess I am an educator too in secondary level and doing a part time job on tertiart level.
I know most of education system has similarities being copied from one system modified or improve and there were guidelines being imposed. I do not know how these could be possible to teach bitcoin in students literally in formal or classroom instruction. This surely will violate guidelines on the teaching process regarding on irrelevant topics to be discussed for example bitcoin.
Bitcoin is not yet formally introduced by the government and it is also impossible to for now because or rumors against bitcoin like scam investment.
However, I know that bitcoin will going to be part of the culture one day. Well just have to wait on when could it be just like the pandemic we are facing now. Some countries do consider it as the new normal way of living life adapting the current situations with the pandemic.

You might like to look at https://bitcoin.org/en/ as they provide the resources that they need to understand.
Ever since I started participating, acquiring, having knowledge about cryptocurrency, I have never come across this website. No mentor had ever shown me that site, I'm really surprise to see such site as the real and first bitcoin website that explains full details about bitcoin and blockchain. Thank you so much Boss, you helped someone here because I'm learning everyday. I made a lesson plan yesterday and I would be teaching final year students approaching graduation in my neighborhood about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general and career opportunities involved in the discussion as soon as the lockdown is lifted.
You doing a nice job op, most students think bitcoin is all about digital money doubler, a ponzi schemes pyramid as others scammers had turned it into. Teach them the real basics about bitcoin and blockchain, the purpose of bitcoin, where can be stored, how can be it stored, how does it depreciate, effect of demand and supply on bitcoin price, and many more to teach. Success Buddy.

I believe that you have a good initiative to teach your student about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. I just want to suggest that you only have to teach them the basics of cryptocurrency as currency, usability, how it works and security. You dont need to teach them technical details about bitcoin or cryptocurrency. Let them experiment on their own after they get basic direction about bitcoin or cryptocurrency. Basic understanding is the most important thing to know and after that let them set their own goal for bitcoin or cryptocurrency.
At the moment I have no desire to teach bitcoin to other in the real world. This is because of the limited time and understanding that I have about bitcoin and if it has to be then I will only teach them the basics which later I will also direct them to the forum to gain broader understanding and knowledge.
I dont doubt your ability as a teacher, but in the end student will only focus on how to make money from bitcoin. Only that, maybe.

Good initiative because most of the children today does not have enough knowledge and does not know that there is an existing with the use of the bitcoin because this is not too much popular on them and does not too much common when they have a normal conversation about this kind of coin but still even there is news on the bitcoin common thing is on the internet only like they are using this kind of coin only for a black market and only for the internet but today some of the people make an investment with the use of it and earn a lot of profit with the help of it.
Also, it is good at the early age they make an investment on it so they can make more profit for the next coming years of their lives still you need to become a mentor or guide on that because if we are talking about bitcoin it is too much broad and we want to teach them for the specific use only and improve by the time by time.
That's the reason why we need to guide the children or the students because most of the time there is a higher chance that someone is trying to scam them and to make more money because the newbies do not have enough knowledge.

Students are always poor.... a lot of us has been there and we know the feeling. This might be one of the topics that you have to touch in more detail, namely : "How to earn bitcoins" .... by this I am not just saying.. getting paid in bitcoin, but rather doing any kind of job to earn fiat cash and then converting that into bitcoins. (Too many people are looking for sites and Ponzi schemes to get rich quick or to get paid with bitcoin)
I will also include all the safe storage methods of bitcoins... because they will work hard to get it, but it can quickly get lost if they store it in the wrong way. (Include the creation of safe offline storeage methods like, Paper wallets.

Taken into consideration. What are the possible sites you think one can exchange some hours of work for Bitcoin as the newbies would love to learn about this too. Everyone wants to be financially free.

I made a lesson plan yesterday and I would be teaching final year students approaching graduation in my neighborhood
Final year students at what level of education, university/college or high school final year students, that's important in deciding the direction your tutoring will take, as well as the age of the students, their understanding capacity and financial strength, as far as investments is concerned.I'll take universitity students for example, from my experience of those who have approached me, they are more concerned about 'how to invest in bitcoin' and already have, maybe not a firm, but at least a grip of the basics. If you are going to be teaching younger students, investment which involves capital may not be paramount, their curiosity will be more of "what is bitcoin".
Age range from 14-23.
Financial ability I can't vouch for each of them but I think 4/10 of them can afford a smartphone and would be able to access the internet.

That's a good idea if they will embrace your free gifts to them as college students. Do you intend to teach them free without charges? Just asking because many of them won't take your lessons serious; when it is free, just speaking from experience though. Your kind should be appreciated for such initiative by your colleagues.
Advise: be patient with them because they are noobs and getting to hear some terminologies from the industry first time. Don't get into your teaches with "you can make hundreds, thousands or millions from cryptocurrency investment or trade". Show them how important to be with the right ideas when talking about cryptocurrency.
Suggested Topics:
1) cryptocurrency basics
i. Beginners guide to cryptocurrency
ii. Uses of cryptocurrencies
iii. Types of cryptocurrency
iv. Cryptocurrency communities.

Wish you good luck mate.
