Ed3Con22': Metaverse for Education Newsletter Issue #20
Dear Educators & Friends,
If you've enjoyed learning from this newsletter, I have a special treat for you!
Next month, we are launching the first ever web3 for education unconference, in a metaverse space. The goal of this event is for innovators & builders across education and web3 to engage in important conversations about the future of learning, the future of earning, the future of teaching, and the future of community.
🎁 In partnership with Ed3 DAO, I'm excited to gift complimentary tickets (while supplies last) to those who register by the 24th of October, and 50% off the ticket price to readers who register by Oct 31st! Use code "Vriti100" when registering here.
The Purpose
This event is part of Ed3DAO's first phase, to educate about web3. The more we can help the world understand the real utility of this new technology, the more changes we believe we'll see.
A few core principles you'll hear about at this event:
decentralized & self-organized learning
immersive learning
regenerative learning
self-sovereign identity
personalized & student-centered learning
Isn't this what we want for education? We believe web3 can help us get there.
The Experience
This is a "choose your own adventure" conference where as an avatar, you'll be able to explore a variety of experiences like talks, labs, masterminds, networking, games, projects, and spontaneous conversations! All you need is a computer and a pair of headphones.
Over three short days, topics will span every level of understanding and interest in web3. Check out the schedule here.
You'll engage with leaders in web3 like Debbie Soon, co-founder of Hug and Nick DeWilde, Founder of Invisible College. You'll also hear from education & EdTech professionals like Nate McClellan at Getting Smart and Claire Zau from Global Silicon Valley Ventures. Other organizations represented include Microsoft, Gitcoin, Digital Promise, Learning Economy Foundation, Coinbase, Pearson, MIT, and numerous other universities.
Our speakers have field experience actually building in the web3 space so you'll hear about real uses cases in education & the classroom, fashion, community building, art, finance, and technology.
We're so excited about this initiative. If you know a group of educators who may not be able to afford this event, send them the code above or reach out to people@ed3dao.com for special group codes.
I hope I'll see you at the Web3 & Evolution of Education of Unconference. It'll be a social learning experience like no other 😊.
Warmly yours,
Vriti & the k20 Educators team
