Proposal: Onboarding Web 3 academic communities to MetaGame
Type of proposal: Soft.
What is proposed: Sponsor a set of four (4) Blockchain Academy Mexico’s courses in exchange for running a specialized Bootcamp of five days with graduates from BAM to work in MyMeta. This will kickstart a long-term partnership for enabling BAM’s students to work on our projects as part of their graduation requirements.
Abstract: Students from Web 3 schools get the theoretical part, however they miss the practical side. This proposal is about offering the practical side to specialized knowledge centers such as Blockchain Academy Mexico (BAM) while getting the benefit of accelerating our development through a gamified approach using MyMeta, Raids, Quests, XP, SEED, and Discord integration as the base of the students’ participation.
Why is this important to MetaGame:
- Tap into fresh talent: We will receive a considerable number of Engaged Octos that can immediately put their hands on building/shilling/bridge-building/writing/designing the world we want to live in.
- Better onboarding: the on-boarding will be structured since the BAM’s students will follow a predefined path from zero to being a successfully engaged octo in a guild
- Higher retention rate: since the engaged octos are going to follow a structured path of quest solving, and the quest solving will be a requirement for them to successfully graduate as engaged octos, the retention rate will be higher.
- Higher engaged octo activity: provided by the structured quest solving path connected to their course at BAM
- Acceleration of (building/shilling/bridge-building) development: due to the higher number of engaged octos, but also due to the connections created by the collaboration with Blockchain Academy Mexico
- Increased reach due to the popularity of Blockchain Academy: the format is present in many countries of Latin America, not only in Mexico, counting more than 3000 students
Additional positive impacts of approving this proposal are:
- Start covering the Spanish speaking side of MetaVille
- Accelerating our current roadmaps while helping positioning MetaGame on the minds of Web3 enthusiasts.
Final summary of actionable tasks:
- Get approved 4 scholarships from MetaGame to BAM (650USD*4=2600USD)
- Get Blockchain Academy Mexico’s curricula and have a call with MetaGame’s interested Players to turn them into Quest Makers, Guild’s Innkeeper, and General Innkeeper for participating in this strategy.
- Define Quests for MyMeta from the Shillers’, Designers’, and Builders’ guilds.
- Start co-organization of Bootcamp’s logistics with BAM
