Hello my dear Hivers, I hope everything is going very well in your life and all that your heart desires is materialized ❤️. I am very happy, YES! And I want to share that joy with you who are protagonists and have allowed me to grow in the community, so I can say WE MADE IT! Since I came to #Hive, I have combined my formal teaching job with content creation but how did I combine it? As a good community, we got together @jonsnow1983 and @valeriavalentina and said LET'S DO IT!
The rest was really easy; entering public institutions is very difficult due to the scepticism, lack of knowledge about the subject and myths that are woven around them regarding the acquisition of cryptocurrencies and digital work. Perhaps we got around this "complicated" work because I work there and the managers trusted me to be able to carry out the talk.
Unfortunately, in our country, digital education is a taboo subject or is misused; we can see that we consume a lot of "junk" content, which contributes nothing to the knowledge or growth of people and society. So, when you talk about organisation, planning, interaction with purpose, empathy, seriousness and even making it a way of life (as many of us do), it is something that does not fully enter our minds and personal-working life.
However, as it is a new and attractive topic, especially for the young audience (which was our target population), our goal was to talk to them in a simple, practical way, with examples, a little of what our ecosystem is and what we do that distinguishes us from other platforms.
At the beginning, I had the conviction that we could find those white elephants of resistance, apathy, demotivation that could slow us down, but it was quite the opposite. The students were attentive, as were the teachers - a success! To finish, we handed out leaflets with summarised information about what we represent; we talked about national experiences that are also contributing to the growth and presence of the country at a global level and about international projects that generate social impact and of which we are a part.
I liked this part because it motivated them to understand that it is something serious, reliable, decentralised, community-based, but that it requires constancy, discipline, originality and above all it teaches us to take care of our community from attacks or threats to violate our ecosystem. And as we didn't want to leave🤣, we asked the attendees some questions about everything we had talked about, and what a surprise! They were very motivated to answer with their own words, they were interested to continue learning and well, our ultimate goal is that like us they can enter, stay, make community showing their talents and skills having an impact worldwide.
A ustedes Vale y Jon les agradezco su apoyo, motivación y acompañamiento ¡Un abrazo inmenso!🤗.
In the northern part of my city there are no initiatives at this level, so we are very motivated to continue reaching out to the different institutions that allow us to do so, and to continue teaching what we do at HIVE. It is also a call as a social responsibility (that's what I call it) that if Hive has given us so much for so long, it is very logical that we also contribute knowledge and share our experiences with those people who we see how daily waste their time on social networks, not being owners of their own content and in the end, not allowing us to think by our own means but rather we leave it to what we see on networks without any kind of control and monitoring.
I hope you enjoyed this experience that I was part of and that I can share it with all of you. To you Vale and Jon I thank you for your support, motivation and accompaniment, a huge hug 🤗.
El banner lo hice en Canvas.
¡Seguimos creciendo!
The pictures are my property. Some were taken by @valeriavalentina because I asked her to take me at my best angle 🤣. The cover is her property, but I loved that photo because it expresses the title of the publication: WE MADE IT! WE'RE GOING FOR MORE! I made the banner in Canvas. We keep growing!
