Teaching Blockchain Technology at elementary school
As an Advocate of Blockchain Technology and its forthcoming revolutionary impact to our very own modern-day life, I am constantly on the lookout for News Articles that I like to share.
I strongly believe, as an Advocate, that the route for development of Blockchain has to be taken back to the very core of our education system and brought into the forefront of primary education to children under the age of 8.
Some may say this is a crazy idea to suggest, some will agree with this, however no one can deny the ability for young children to adopt to technological developments in our modern day lives.
In the future, Blockchain Technology will be as important as reading, writing and arithmetic, and you could even argue that it will be important as the Internet itself, as it alone will become the Internet.
Earlier on I was scanning my news feeds and came across this excellent article I thought I would share.

EDUCATION, EDUCATION, EDUCATION
Society has to take a good look at the current Education System over the coming decade as the System is rapidly loosing ground to technological developments.
The current Education System that was ok for the 1970's and 1980's has to be rethought to accommodate not only the adoption of the Internet but the fast approaching and certain adoption of Blockchain Technology.
In essence, Blockchain Technology ought to sit alongside the likes of the basic forms of education, in the order of: Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Blockchain Technology.
All other subjects should sit beyond these.
In the future having the basic understanding of Blockchain Technology will be as important, if not more important, than understanding the basics of: reading, writing and adding up..!!
