As a former Investment Banker and certified Business Education Teacher,  I love teaching Cryptocurrency and Stock Market Investing!  My experience in the industry gives me a deep knowledge of investment analysis and the process of buying and selling stocks and cryptocurrencies.   My students always enjoy playing the Investment Simulation game and competing with me along with their classmates.   This Cryptocurrency minicamp is fun and engaging and knowing how to identify ways to profit from this growing phenomenon is an important life skill.  Investing responsibly is the best way to grow savings and build cash reserves.   That's why it's critical for young adults to learn how invest responsibly now, BEFORE they risk real money.   

Based on my extensive experience teaching this subject, I know how to make it interesting and memorable.  I use video clips and engaging handouts to make the content  easy to understand and remember.  This class is interactive, not lecture based, so students will have the opportunity to discuss, share experiences, and ask questions.  I will help students discover how current events effect the prices of  cryptocurrencies (including Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and Ether) which will increase their engagement in the world around them.

No formal homework is assigned. Students will be playing an Investment simulation game where they can invest in cryptocurrencies as well as companies involved in blockchain and crypto related businesses. They can use the simulation game outside of class as little or as much as they choose,
