SPIEL is a E-Learning Cryptogene project that aims to decentralize the knowledge economy by providing a unique online educational system
Education in this present world have become more one directional and that is not meant to be so
Teaching is meant to be a partnership between an individual who has an information and another who needs that Information, and they need to be a presence of coperation and synergy to get the most value out of every class
I am currently an undergraduate in a prestigious Nigerian University and I can confidently tell you that teaching have become more of a broadcast. The current educational system gives us Information they feel is Important
They don't really care about the desires and opinions of the students, they only thing that is required of students is for them to appear in classes and take notes

The current educatonal system is obsolete and I say this because a lot of things being taught now are no longer relevant in the present age. I had a discuss with a friend of mine asking him when he thinks Cryptocurrency will become a required course for Finance Students and he told me 20-30 years
What we see is most people taking courses just because they are a requirement to graduate and not because they have an interst in them
Well the world is changing and now we all have the ability to combine the ideas of good audience and relationship building with powerful online platforms that give people access to valuable information that they want to learn about and are also willing to pay for
SPEIL however have turned out to be a game changer, just like STEEMIT It enables creators to earn from the activity of their audience or in this case students. This goes a long way in reducing the barriers of entry for prospective students

Element of a Quality Online Course
There are elements that you have to put in place in order for you to create a great online course that people will find interesting. Like i said SPEIL is bound to be huge and I believe that it will gain mass adoption from various Steemians who take their blog seriously
The first key in creating a quality online course is listening to your audience. They are the ones who know the kind of information tht they are lacking, and when you pay attention to them you can find out the things that they need to learn about
It can also be as easy as you asking them what they want to learn about. If done right you will get a lot of feedback. The people who are also aware will most likely help you promote the courses because they believe it is valuable
Even though you are an expert in your field it is still important for you to pay attention to your audience to know their desired knowledge. It is their feed back that will enable you frame the information that you are going to give them. And it will also help you communicate the value of the information you are bringing
Find A Solid Teaching Voice
For your course to be engaging you have to teach effectively. We have al had courses we ll forgot about 10 Minutes after the final examination, these are those courses we never saw the value of and it was also coupled with the fact that the teaching voice of the educator was not strong
Getting a solid teaching voices involves making the students see why they need to learn that particaular aspect of what you are taking about. You can also help your students progress by nudging them along with milestones and achievement badges like the ones used on Future Learn
SPIEL however enable course creators to reward students with a form of reward token called Flashes which can in turn be exchanged for Genes which can be used to unlock special feautures in the SPIEL platform
Putting these kind of things in place means you have had an understanding of how people learn, why they are seeking knowledge in your field and giving them enough incentive to complete the learning process

Making Lasting Impact
This means achieving something permanent when it comes to the Information you are providing. It may involve an occasional tweaking of the course information to get up to date with current trends
Permanence also means providing a long time access to the course you create via links in your blog posts and if possible setting up a landing page that will provide prospective students with access to your course via email. They should also have access to ask you any questions they have on that course.
SPIEL also have a dedicated chat area where Teachers and Students can create communities around several topics. This will ensure a life long exchange of value
Building a permanent informational product takes huge work, but it is something if done right can enable you help a lot of people who are lacking life changing information
These are the things you have to keep in mind when creating an online course. Ignoring them increases the risk of creating something no one will be intersted in
You have to go out there and build something truly amazing for your audience and the world at large
