Steemit Crypto Academy | Summary On Homework Task, Week 5-Season 5

Background

The Homework Task Week-5(Season 5) draws to a close on 18th Dec 2021. During the last week, we witnessed as many as 23 entries.

We want to congratulate all who participated and submitted their assignments during this week.

This week we covered-- Onchain Metrics- Part 3(GIOM, Large Transaction Volume). I hope you all now have a better insight into "Support/Resistance based on GIOM, Momentum based on GIOM, Total & Adjusted Large Transaction Volume, etc."

Those who participated this week in Homework Task-5(Season 5) are now well-informed about GIOM, Liquidity Zones, Clusters, and their range, volume, etc.

I hope Week 5 was productive, persuasive, informative, and educative for you all.

Steemit Crypto Academy is helping you all to bridge the gap between concept and gaining experience, particularly for naive users, thereby inducing practical intelligence. The tasks are designed & structured in a way to make you familiar with the practical exploration of a use-case. In essence, you gain real experience, and you earn as well in Steemit Crypto Academy.

I want to convey my gratitude to the Steemit Team for coming up with such an idea and organizing a team for that cause, fostering crypto literacy.

This week, we have visited all the posts that have been submitted with the correct tag( #sapwood-s5week5, #cryptoacademy). So I would request all the participants to make sure that they use the correct tags, which should be among the first five tags. And also, make sure you post in the Steemit Crypto Academy community.

Observation & Thoughts

We found 23 entries in the last week(Week-5). We have visited them all.

Those who analyzed by taking the numerical data, with proper quality of analysis have scored better. Nevertheless, all of you have gained first-hand information and experience on GIOM, Large Transaction Volume, etc."

_{The simple average score for Week 5 (#sapwood-s5week5) stands at "7.69". Percentage of posts with a score below 5 stands at 0%.}

Organized writing and a curated directory of organized articles on the Trending page add fundamental value to Steem Blockchain & Steemit Crypto Academy. It's a continuous process, and we must evolve as organized authors every day/every week through such Tasks/assignments.

We have zero-tolerance for spam/plagiarism. So any such act(or repeating such act) would diminish your potential in Steem Blockchain. We would request all users to follow the path of hard work.

We observed that most users did not properly explain "how to ascertain momentum using GIOM".

Always go through the rules/guidelines/deadline before submitting your assignment.

I would like to highlight a few areas which need to be addressed.

(1) Presentation:-

Screenshots (Either too small to make it readable, or not adequately outlined/emphasized)

• In a practical task that involves analysis/comparison/real transactions, you always have to provide a lot of screenshots. At times your article becomes heavy and too noisy. So you should always capture a screenshot that is needed for the subject, neither too much nor too little. You should crop and adjust the outer edges to bring the readers' attention and becomes visible & readable.

• Always outline and emphasize the specific areas so that it takes less effort for the readers/curators to decipher.

• If you are using different styling techniques, make it consistent with its style and color.

• Any watermark or your username on the screenshot should not be too big.

• Proper alignment of the screenshot renders a professional touch.

Repetitive/Redundant Words or sentences

Always try to avoid redundant words/sentences; redundant words obstruct flow and cause a distraction for the readers.

Proofreading
Before hitting the submit button, I request you read it at least once/twice. At the final stage of your writing, you must go for one round of proofreading to surface out the misspelling and grammatical errors. It was a major issue for most of the users. Please take it seriously; it will enhance the structure of your content to make it readable, succinct. You can take the help of the Grammarly app for proofreading.

Proper Formatting
Proper formatting is essential to make your content more organized, your content might be good, but you need to learn the skill of presentation to make it more attractive. That always wins the attention of the reader at first sight. Use markdown styling to present it professionally. If you do that on a day-to-day basis, you also evolve as a professional blogger in the long run.

(2) Consistency & Compliance

It's more about assertion and correct reasoning, which makes your research, analysis, and understanding comprehensive to make it a true representation/response to the subject.

The reasoning should also be attached to chain link your understanding of the subject.

(3) Quality of Analysis

When you develop a relationship with a dApp/tool or a use-case(by gaining sufficient user experience), you jerked into the reality of the variants, precisely confounding variables.

Further, your research, analysis, understanding, and practical exposure to such variables will help you conclude the common mistakes; that will ultimately help you appropriately demonstrate them, making you a more reliable author.

The level of engagement is abysmal. We want our participants to visit others' posts, produce insightful comments, and make it an interactive session. At present, only the professor is interacting with the participants. The student-to-student interaction is missing. We can't build an interconnected web and better content discovery without engagement. I request all of you to visit other's posts in Steemit Crypto Academy.

Statistics & Evaluation

Here is the stat of the 23 entries in Homework Task-5(Season 5)

_{NB- Selection of a winner may not be absolute; most of the time, it is based on relative performance. As long as you focus on all the sub-parts of Homework Task and gain sufficient user experience, include real examples & analysis, you stand better to win it.}

Conclusion

We all are committed to creating an enriched communication environment, organizational interactions, etc., which is a precursor to building a foundation of crypto literacy. The correct information and education should percolate down the line, and the PoB will come along to reward you(extrinsic motivation).

We will try our best to structure a task to draw real-life experiences and motivate you for sustained attention to the task/academy. The participants should also reciprocate according to the Task requirement, mainly if it demands a real trade/transactions/experience. Healthy participation and effective discussion are key to the overall success of the Crypto Academy.

We will also try to reinforce the principle of collectivism/democracy (but always based on performance) through the crypto academy.

The crypto academy is also an avenue to learn to reason and to find & explore the passions and talents of the users in this ecosystem.

Gain as much user experience as you can. But always be your own. Don't hesitate to write what you have understood(even if you are wrong); We will make corrections if needed. The most important thing at the end of the day is what you learned.

The take-home message-- Develop a relationship with dApp/Exchange/tool(or as the Task demands), Learn, Experience, Perform an actual Trade(if required), Analyze; then submit your assignment. That's the ideal path to economic advantage(upvote) & crypto literacy.

Thank you.

A request to Steemit Team, @steemcurator01:-

I request @steemcurator01 not to vote this Post because I could not keep up with the Club5050 status. I tried my best. But I am going through a rough patch at the moment financially. I am not trying to gain sympathy by saying this; It's not even like I don't want to be a part of Club5050. I am a strong proponent of Club5050.

But I am saying this from a different perspective. The students in the Academy should not feel discriminated (on Club5050). It is applicable for all, including professors. Therefore the sacrifice should come from the professor/MOD first. I will continue to work with utmost passion and determination in the Academy(without support, should I fail to maintain Club5050 status). I will try my best to restore my Club5050 status as I progress.

Unless otherwise stated, all the images, infographics, charts, tables, etc. (if any) are my original works.
