I first discovered Mr. D. Math nearly ten years ago. At that time, I can assure you, I never would have imagined I'd be writing another post about his course on Blockchain! That wasn't a word I'd ever heard at the time or a concept I could have envisioned even if I had! But leave it to Mr. D. to be both on the cutting edge of technology and the cutting edge of offering educational resources for things that are current and developing!
Mr. D. Math's newest course - Blockchain Beginner: The Genesis Block - is now available for purchase. It's a self-paced course, so your student can begin at any time. Lessons, assessments, and course material are available on-demand!
Blockchain for Beginners
This course is perfect for high school students, but it's also a great tool for anyone who is new to the world of cryptocurrency and digital financial assets, such as business people or those interested in investing online.
Learn Blockchain Basics
One of my biggest concerns about the concept of cryptocurrency is the question of cybersecurity and protection of digital assets. Blockchain Beginner: The Genesis Block begins with a fantastic overview of online safety, privacy, and financial asset protection literacy.
Financial Literacy and Digital Assets
Blockchain Beginner: The Genesis Block includes animated instructional videos (like the screenshot above) as well as assessments throughout the course so that students can check their knowledge and keep track of what they've picked up and what they need to review further.
Crypto Picture Dictionary for Blockchain Fundamentals
We were especially impressed with the "Crypto Picture Dictionary" - a digital, interactive "book" that students could scroll through to see visual representations and diagrams explaining concepts relevant to blockchain, financial investments, crypocurency, bitcoin, and more.
There are also video interviews with industry experts, such as Michael Rihani who spoke about smart practices for online banking and transactions.
The course includes eleven different lessons expanding from basic knowledge about bitcoin and cryptocurrency into topics like civic engagement on this subject, and potential career choices related to it.
AI Homework Tutor
And if you're considering Blockchain Beginner: The Genesis Block or any other course from Mr. D. Math, you'll be exicted to know that they have added a brand new AI Homework Assistant feature. Don't worry - it doesn't give students answers or do their homework for them. It's just a tool that integrates with whatever Mr. D. classes they are taking to offer tips and ask just the right questions to help them move forward and make progress!
Mr. D. (Beyond) Math
If you are looking for online high school classes, Mr. D Math does offer, well, lots of math classes! But it's also a great source for SAT/ACT Test Prep, American Sign Language, and more!
