This may be a final writeup, a summary of each participant's project, a link roundup to externally hosted  assignments — whatever makes sense for your course.

Note that participants can reply to this post, but only this initial post of the topic will be published to the cohort page as its public artifact.

❗️**Important:** The contents of this post will automatically get published on the cohort page. That means it'll be publicly available for ANYONE, not just learners in this cohort, to see. Don't post anything you wouldn't want everyone to know (like links to video conference calls).

All *other* posts in this forum category are private to participants in this cohort. Note that each course also has its own forum space, parent to this one, that is publicly visible.

If your meetings are regularly scheduled (for example, every Monday for six weeks), be sure to list any days when the course will deviate from the norm (rescheduling around holidays, for example).

## Questions

Replace with: particular questions you'd like students to answer at the end of the cohort, aimed at helping your course improve.

The questions below are just examples. You'll get better feedback if you ask targeted questions about specific aspects of your course. Tweak these questions, or write your own!

- What did you expect to get out of this course? Were those expectations met? If not, how do you feel about the progress you made in this course (if any)?
- What specific things (moments, techniques, conversations) did you feel were most useful to learning in this course?
- What do you wish we'd spent more time on? Anything you felt we should add?
- What's one thing you'd suggest we change or remove?
- Please share anything else you'd like us to know!

Participants: you can quote some or all of these questions to structure your replies below.

## Sharing the Retro

Replace with: how the info from this retrospective will be used to improve the course. For example:

The maintainers of this course will review all feedback collected in this retrospective process. We'll think hard about how we can improve the course structure, specific processes, even particular assignments, questions, or readings.

We may follow up if we want to get more detail on anything mentioned below. 

Thanks so much for taking the time to help us improve this course — we really appreciate it!

Retrospective

## Learning Goals

The Cryptoeconomics Club.

The Club is for those interested in studying more about cryptocurrencies and how they may shape the future. During the course we will cover:

- Quick basics into Bitcoin, Blockchain and Cryptocurrency
- What's next in Crypto
- Basics of Solidity and making a dApp
- NFTs and what's upcoming in Ethereum
- Make a DAO
- Cryptocurrency incentive structures and how certain protocols work
- The intersection between society, cryptocurrency and economics

## Structure

Each session will roughly be 1.5 hours.

This course will be shaped also by the participants so some of the goals and objectives may vary based on interaction.

## Who Should Sign Up

If you are keen to get into crypto, learn about crypto,  ponder about how it intersects with future society or build something in  the space.

Only enthusiasm is required :)
