Cubomania Platform: System That is Trying to Match You

One of the biggest problems the education sector is facing today is that all centralised educational systems are like educational factories where all children study the same subjects at the same time regardless of any individual characteristics. However, will this approach work in the information age? It’s obvious that it won’t. And one of the goals that Cubomania is pursuing is to create a platform that will cater for your child’s interests.

How the platform works

When registering in the system a student fills in the test form without their parents’ help, answers a number of test questions in order to figure out their socionics type for implementing the main idea of personalized learning — it’s not the student who adapts to the restrictive limits of the system, but it’s the system that adapts to the personality of the student. On the basis of test results the system selects the most efficient personality type of the teacher for a particular child (for example, a virtual character) who will be able to find an approach to the student and give them knowledge as fast as possible. Also, students will be able to choose training courses from the list of courses available for them in accordance with their achievements and completed programs (i.e. their XP ‘experience’). All the students participating in maintaining the Smart contract will record their result and the way of completing their “Quest” (learning activities) into the blockchain forever. Using the CUBO Token will enable us to use incentives (token bonuses) for any student in the world, which is quite difficult at the moment because of the drawbacks of fiat currency systems.

All the programs will go through 2 stages of moderation. The first stage is manual moderation which is carried out by a special department whose employees filter trolls and inadequately developed programs. The second stage is running the program through the moderation neural net. The education program and the character are moderated by a special neuronet that detects the potential mismatch in characters and creates different models of interaction between a teacher and a student. As a result, the net will determine the students for whom the program is not suitable as well as those for whom it will be most efficient as this idea builds on the compatibility of a teacher (a virtual character) and a student.

What happens in the marketplace

Case 1

An eco-system player that acts as a Creator of educational content (a teacher, programmer, coach, etc) places their CV in the eco-system depending on the topic of the content they create. An eco-system player that acts as a Customer finds their CV using a system of tags. The Customer needs to have a customized education program developed. They strike a deal via a smart contract. The contract sum is blocked on the Customer’s balance. The Creator makes a requested program. The program is then checked by a moderator. After the approval, the program is downloaded on the Customer’s device. The smart contract is regarded as executed, and the tokens are sent to the Creator of the requested education program. According to the conditions that the participants agreed on:

  1. The Creator gets authorship and ownership rights. The content Creator can add this program to their CV and sell it on the marketplace as a finished product. A learning character can be sold an unlimited number of times. Each character is rated upon completion of the course, which has an impact on the character’s position at the marketplace and its popularity. Every subsequent sale of this asset to participants of the platform will give the bonus points in the form of tokens to the author of this character or education program as the author is a holder of the ownership rights. The Customer uses the program. The Customer doesn’t acquire authorship and ownership rights and cannot sell or change the program.
  2. The Customer gets authorship and ownership rights. The Customer has an opportunity to keep the character and use it or to sell\promote the character on the marketplace for Cubo tokens.

Case 2

Any person that is expert in some field of knowledge and that would like to become a participant of a decentralized educational platform registers on our platform. We provide them with templates available on the Cubomania platform that will enable them to create content and design a unique character on the Ethereum blockchain platform, using a database of educational programs available on the platform. Tokens are used as consumables. The program is then checked by a moderator. This content gets attached to the character and becomes a digital asset with ownership rights that are registered in the blockchain. Further, there are 3 possible scenarios.
1) The Creator has an opportunity to keep the character and use it. At the request of the Creator, data on the character are recorded in the blockchain.

2) The Creator can present their character as ‘a model’ so that other eco-system players could use its ‘genetic’ structure for creating improved characters that are more complex in nature and able to demonstrate more complex modes of interaction. The Creator keeps ownership and authorship rights.

3) The Creator can sell the character on the marketplace for Cubo tokens and, at will, promote their character in the ‘Learning characters’ section using tokens. If someone purchases the character, ownership rights are transferred to the Customer. This information is recorded in the blockchain. The Creator gets tokens. Tokens used for creating and promoting a character are burnt. Having received tokens for selling the digital asset, the Creator may convert tokens into fiat money.

Case 3

An eco-system player who acts as an Incentive Provider wants a child (Incentive Taker) to complete some program and reach a specific level of achievements. The Incentive Taker commits to study a specific subject for Token bonuses (Incentive). They strike a deal via a smart contract. The contract sum is blocked on the Incentive Provider’s balance. The Incentive Taker fulfils their obligations. The smart contract is regarded as executed, and the tokens are sent to the Incentive Taker.
