Pipeline
The sequence of steps that teachers and learners will follow during the course.
Accreditation form - The teacher prepares a Google form to enroll learners to the class. The enrolling is the only step that happens before the start of the course. A link to the accreditation form is posted on the course page. The accreditation form will collect the following information:
email address
experience with Web3 (in a scale from 1 to 5)
Discord handle
Metamask Ethereum address
Mailing list - Important communications, especially in the initial settling-in phase of the class, will be provided by e-mail. This is the reason why email addresses are collected
Discord channel - The virtual classroom is the Discord server for the DAE project. In particular, on that server the teacher opens private text and voice (plus video) channels reserved for members of the class. The text channel is dedicated to all communication regarding the course and also serves as a forum for an initial discussion of proposals. The voice channel is used as a place to lively discuss the class topics and to host in-depth seminars given by invited speakers
Scaffolding - The semi-structured organization of the course, with bound and free teaching variables, are discussed with the students
Badges - The teacher creates, using Otterspace, the Red Panda, White Tiger, and Black Dragon badges. All joining students initially are Red Panda, while all teachers are Black Dragons. Students can gain higher level badges through virtuous actions. The teacher creates an allow list for each badge using the learners' Ethereum addresses that will be collected during the course. The students mint the badges using their Ethereum wallet
Proposals and voting - Proposals and voting of proposals happen on Snapshot. Before posting a proposal on Shapshot, it is discussed in the class forum (the text and voice Discord channels). Voting happens with the Otterspace badges. If a person has collected more than one badge, the one with higher value counts
Teaching - The actual teaching happens on the dedicated Discord voice and video channel (and will be not recorded to enhance live participation). Each class lasts 45 minutes plus an open question time
Karma remuneration. The DAE project has a treasury with fungible and non-fungible tokens, as well as in-game rewards, that can be used as a remuneration for learners according to the learn-to-earn model. Rewards are distributed at the end of the course
