CoinEdition - A Spotlight on Schools

We know that current education systems around the world are flawed, and always will be. Room for improvement never goes away - that is the nature of evolution. It’s easy to sit on our blocks and complain. Instead, we’d rather help.

Earlier this term, Centennial Schools integrated our cryptocurrency & blockchain online course into their grade 9 curriculum and are scheduled to complete it by the end of October this year. Crawford International School Kenya is a long-standing client of ours and has been integrating our courses into their curriculum for the past 5 years. These are two examples of teachers and parents taking an active role in moving the education system forward.

These small steps are significant. After all, the field of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is broad and multidisciplinary, reinforcing what is learnt in several other school subjects. In terms of life skills, we’re talking about improving the digital and financial literacy levels of young adults across the board. In our modern era where so many opportunities are available by simply having access to the internet, these skills are critical.

We’re reaching out to schools, principals and teachers around the world to start a conversation. A conversation about educating school students beyond the media hype and ‘get rich quick’ schemes.

This technology has deeper implications for their career, financial well-being and the way they will live their lives. Here’s an article that discusses a few benefits of introducing it as a school activity. It’s a byte-sized read.

We’re excited to be a link in this education chain and we know many of you would like to get involved too. So if you’re a parent or teacher, or know any schools with an appetite for thinking outside the block, do get in touch, or consider making an introduction.

That’s it for now, gotta Dash!
