The internet and technology brought a considerable shift in educating our children. I remember going to the computer lab to access the “Oregon Trail” and other games. There was a separation between the classroom and the computer.
Today, my kids got issued Chromebooks that they can take back and forth. They have the internet at their disposal, and they can check their grades on a whim. They may not appreciate everything the internet brings, but I see the magic.
Welcome back to the Metaverse 101 series (101, 102, 103), where I discuss various aspects of the metaverse. The series aims to brainstorm and make us more aware of the possibilities and opportunities moving into internet 3.0.
The 8-Hour Mindset Destroys Wealth
But not all changes are very positive. We now depend on pdfs to do most of the teaching. I hate these damn pdfs because they do not motivate children. Our kids don’t have textbooks to read and follow for remediation.
The metaverse to the rescue. I believe the metaverse can close the education gap in many ways. Let’s look at three main pillars I predict the metaverse will change inside the education landscape: accessibility, interactivity, and creativity. Afterward, I will do a quick look at how we can profit from these innovations. Let’s begin.
Accessibility. The cost of getting into the metaverse is high currently. You need a headset and the software. Only top-tier schools will be able to afford these expenses at first. But, just like computers, costs go down over time.
Remember, almost every child has a Chromebook they can take home. Heck, I believe they even take them home over the summer. Eventually, a Chromebook-like device will allow children to access the metaverse.
Many kids have cell phones, so maybe that is the quick answer. However, others do not have access to cell phones, which would exclude them from participating.
SEO and Your New Business
Luckily, I believe software will be accessible from the start. Can you believe we used to pay a lot of money to access Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Excel, and cloud storage? Now, I can use Google Drive to run my entire business for free! What a world we are blessed to call ours.
Interactivity. I hate these freaking pdfs schools use today. We can do better, and the metaverse is our path to greatness. Parents and teachers need to engage with our children, which means they need engaging software.
Can you imagine our children traveling to a world of math aliens that each can “show” them a math topic? Each topic could be its own planet. Now, the child can associate terms and concepts with places and people. It will be a great way to learn.
I noticed that reading comprehension is not as important as growing up. I am not blaming teachers and the school system on this because I see it every day across the board.
Even in the Marine Corps, I see adults that can’t truly comprehend the words they are reading. We can address this in the metaverse by teaching people “how to learn.” The book “Limitless” is about building your brain to learn better and faster.
Multi-Generational Investing
The interactiveness of the metaverse allows us to understand concepts, ideas, technology, and education at a more in-depth level. Imagine a plumber being able to troubleshoot a piping problem from his desk at home. We can get “the reps” without expending the money to prepare physical hardware.
Creativity. Finally, we can build creative software and worlds that keep our children’s attention. This also goes for colleges, military, and vocational schools. Every level of education can use unique software to train, teach, and mold students and workers.
The sky’s the limit as far as learning goes, and children might not even know they are in a learning environment. I believe creativity will separate us from robots, so the metaverse will be a great place to extend that philosophy.
Speaking of robots, artificial intelligence is a massive part of the metaverse, and therefore education. The book “Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, and Virtual Worlds” explains that authors can already write books with AI as co-authors.
Using that information, we can ascertain that AI can act as a tutor to our kids. If my child is struggling with fractions, he may be able to visit a fraction planet in the metaverse. From there, he can meet up with an AI that can learn his needs on the fly. This AI can give him the one-on-one guidance that he truly needs. Amazing.
The Magic of Passive Income
Education is a business. Education is a business—a big one. Those entrepreneurs who see the potential to add value will extract massive wealth.
First, understand that you don’t have to be a programmer or coder to become successful in the metaverse. Remember, those with the content win; that is why I always stress becoming a content creator.
For example, I have 300+ short books on Amazon. I can repurpose those into all sorts of educational materials, textbooks, and manuals. In fact, I could work with a team to build a financial freedom planet.
My planet can have different neighborhoods for dividends, royalties, real estate, business, and even military. Building these worlds from scratch would be time-consuming, but having pre-built content will expedite the situation.
Happy Financial Independence Day
Killer apps. There will be huge applications in the metaverse, and these will change everything we know. When I first gained access to the internet in 1996, I could have never imagined having YouTube on my phone. We used to have to download pictures to view them.
Again, you don’t have to be a programmer; you just need to create content or envision what you want your concept to look like in the metaverse.
But what if you have a skill that you want to teach? We won’t leave everything to the robots. You can become a teacher, consultant, trainer, etc. Everything you are doing today can help you establish yourself as a subject matter expert tomorrow.
I just wrote a couple of articles on how NOT to use credit cards and USE credit cards. How can I turn these scenarios into a valuable resource in the metaverse? Can I create a shopping center application that people can use to learn how to resist spending temptations?
Compounding: The 8th Wonder of the World
Combining ideas. Combining multiple ideas under one roof creates genuinely unique content and programs. I learned how to start meshing ideas together from the book “How to Take Smart Notes.” I wrote more about my experiences in “How to Create a Never-Ending Stream of Content.”
Conclusion. The metaverse will be about creativity and utility. Education is the most vital resource on Earth, outside of love and time. The education space is ripe for a shakeup.
If you can create a fun experience that children “want” to engage with, you can become wealthy beyond your dreams. Currently, there is a separation between video games and education software. The person who can combine those two entities will win.
I hope you are enjoying the Metaverse 101 series. If you want to learn even more about finances, please join my Facebook Group, where I post multiple times a day. Enjoy your day.
