Hello educator and web3 frens,A common refrain when the topic of web3 and crypto comes up is, "Yeah, but when and how do we start bringing this into our schools?". This is a fair question when discussing something as abstract as the evolution of the internet. This week I'm sharing some tangible applications of people and organizations that are leading the shift of implementing web3 education.The perfect moment for the transition from "talking about it" to "doing it" is right now. Education is the main tool we have to enable the next generation of creators to engage with this technology. By flushing out those that are "in it for the money", it leaves these creative builders. Once the promise of the big payday is removed from the equation, only those that truly believe in the transformational power of these technologies will stick it out.Looking at the Gartner Hype Cycle curve this would place us in the "Slope of Enlightenment." It's not quite the mainstream adoption that we are hoping for, but there are enough examples that will help to spread a broader understanding of what is possible. Finally, we are seeing the crystalization of these technologies. This week I am sharing three tangible examples across K-12 to higher learning. Each of these demonstrates how the blockchain/metaverse/crypto topic will be brought directly into our classrooms.Here is a summary of the resources:🪙 An article about how students accumulate crypto tokens as they move through K-12🎓 Ivy League school announces they are offering a certificate on the metaverse🏫 Leading education innovator brings crypto and web3 digital education to high school students
