This is a very interesting experiment. Attempting to use Steemit as a way to motivate kids to not only explore their learning style but also to actively participate in it as well even though it didn't sound like the participants were incentivized by Steemit's reward scheme. I believe that this is because the participants don't value Steem Dollars like they do real dollars. Maybe, when deciding what the subject matter of the Dojo session is going to be, you should choose something that will add to their understanding of value. You could even do a dojo on bitcoin itself. Or if you're afraid of putting the kids off. Maybe encase a little economics within a subject that will keep them coming back would slowly open them up to digital currency. Maybe explaining that the U.S. dollar is the first digital currency. I don't know. Looking forward to hearing about how it goes in the future.
