Community Question: Should my classroom of 20 bring their weekly discussions to STEEMIT??!??!! YOU TELL THEM!!

Hey Steemit community! :D

(I AM GOING TO SHOW THEM HOW YOU ALL RESPOND SO THEY KNOW IF ITS A GOOD IDEA OR NOT)

My name is Kat Gualy and I am currently getting my undergrad in Digital Media Management at St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas.

In one of my classes this semester, Principles of Digital Media, we have weekly discussions where we talk about articles we find covering current events in the global tech revolution relating back to what we are discussing in the classroom.

Each week, a few students are invited to share about what they found in front of the whole class. Last week, I was invited by my professor to discuss my article and introduced STEEMIT and other blockchain social medias such is nexus.com and synergy.com to my class of about 20 people and my professor. (This was so exciting for me because I am a huge advocate for STEEMIT and to be able to present this idea to so many people at once was incredible)

AND, what I realized after class is that my class could TOTALLY post our article discussions onto Steemit.com to share with this community what we are finding and learning about Digital Media in our world today (AI, robotics, social media, currency, biotech, etc). We already post these discussions in essentially the same format on Canvas for school, so my question is why not move that here as well???

**********SO HERE IS WHAT IM ASKING THE COMMUNITY:**********

  • Do you think this is a good idea??
  • Is this content you would enjoy seeing on steemit??

If yes, up vote and comment telling/showing my class why!! I will take a screenshot in a few days and share STEEMIT's response to this post with my whole class to show them what kind of potential there is for all of us on this amazing site!!
I really want them to see first hand the potential of how supportive this community is of each other, so please please please leave feedback and tell me how we can best bring this classroom of 20 people onto Steemit.com!!

I have said this many times. I came here for the money, stayed for the community.

Now a community driven primarily by monetary incentive may not be the best idea, but the system/or the community rewards only quality and original contents, which means that you can almost expect top quality content granted you are looking at the right places.

Moving along, I am sure similar model will be adopted by other companies for different applications.

I'm sure your peers will then thank you for introducing them into steemit as one of the early adopters.
