Pampanga's 1st university to use Steemit for its students and projects.

in promo-steem •  6 years ago 


Questions I needed answers:

  1. Do universities understand blockchain? If so, do they need steemit? 
  2. Is this the best way to spread blockchain projects? 


"Marketing is a contest for people's attention - Seth Godin"


         For more than a month now I've been busy organizing this seminar/workshop with a very well established university, that's why I'm not posting lately here on steemit. To be honest I dont care anymore about getting upvotes everyday so I'll just post my work and what I think is valuable for steemit community. 


         I've been very grateful to be chosen as Steem Ambassador by the #promo-steem community and @steem-ambassador. I would like to thank @starkerz @anarcotech @cryptocurator and @surpassinggoogle for their mentorship and trust. 


Do universities understand blockchain? If so, do they need steemit? 


     - No they dont understant it and YES they need steemit. Schools and students will benefit a lot if they use steemit everyday for their projects, outreach and school activities. 

Can I earn my tuition with steemit? 

         This is a question only steemit communities can answer. I really hope we can, their tuition fee for 1 semester is around $200 only.

If I can I'll upvote their posts each day for this goal. Imagine Steem Scholars. 


Is this the best way to spread blockchain projects? 

     - I think yes. Mass adoption will only occur if there's enough knowledge about the product. Blockchain as a whole is still an alien technology that causes people to be reluctant in trying it. Bringing students on the platform will make them ambassadors and create a word-of-mouth effect, besides I think they're the driving force behind trends right now.




How I did it? 

         Well If you know me I've been organizing events for more than a year now for artists and students to express their ideas and artworks because of this I've established connections and trust to conduct a workshop for aspiring student artists. 

         I simply offered the addition of explaining the blockchain Steemit with them after the workshop. Ofcourse I needed to speak with officials of the school and some professor. 

Here are few pictures of the workshop about writing a spoken word poetry









Future Plans:

         Whatever the result of this seminar, I made sure It was published properly. That's why I invited Sunstar Pampanga (newspaper publication) and GNN Pampanga (TV broadcast) to cover the whole seminar. 



         With this I can gather momentum in doing the same thing with all the universities in my city. If you want to help or promote your project, you can best reach me here. www.facebook.com/francisleonylpalo and on discord as (supportph)
