Hola @TonyDarko , I just want to say I would have loved to see this idea pass and $1500 is a minute price to pay for onboarding the amount of people you have interested. With the amount of money we spend on games and other projects that bring in far less lon-term value, I'm amazed this didn't pass. I agree the Spanish-speaking community in DCL is largely ignored and having this kind of immersive community-building educational event is KEY to attracting a diverse group of builders that will remain for the long-haul. Please don't give up. I am active in the Spanish channel, feel free to reach out if there is anything I can do to help.

Intensive course for Decentraland in Spanish, teaching 3D and TypeScript. This proposal is now in status: REJECTED. Voting Results: * Yes 23% 542,300 VP (92 votes) * No 77% 1,751,915 VP (72 votes)

[quote="TonyDarko, post:14, topic:17341"] your analogy with the mrbeast strategy seems wrong to me, firstly because you are comparing educational content with entertainment [/quote] Not comparing the two, what I am saying is it might be better to translate and dub the content that already exists rather than to have this and many more grants for educational purposes on the same content just different languages DAO/Funds wise. Just my personal opinion.

At the time of writing this we have more than 80 people enrolled in the course, there is clearly an interest in learning from the Spanish-speaking community.

hello, our initial proposal was just one but they recommended us to divide it, there were people interested in a specific project but not in another, I agree that it would be better to have only one and that is why we had done it that way. Regarding your comment @Sannin, your analogy with the mrbeast strategy seems wrong to me, firstly because you are comparing educational content with entertainment, on the other hand, there is more than one way to design wearables and program functions, if you read our syllabus, we teach first blender and typescript in general, then we focus on decentraland, the current content (mostly) presupposes a knowledge base that many interested people do not have. On the other hand, many existing tutorials use Substance painter, which is paid software, we propose a 100% workflow with tools inside blender. Taking into account what you say, the content will be recorded and subtitled in English so that more people can access it. And finally, as I said, there is more than one way to be able to design things in blender, I am going to give you an example, for the meckaduck I used one of the DCL textures, however I made the UVs smaller, stretched them and modified them accordingly. in such a way that I got interesting gradients and effects even though technically it would be a mistake to do that with the UVs, however understanding the DCL doc and how a Game Ready model works, we can do this kind of thing, that kind of "tricks" They are the ones that I would also explain.   

[quote="ckbubbles, post:12, topic:17341"] I love the idea of educational classes in DCL, and ones in Spanish is a great idea. [/quote] Wondering what happened to the sdk classes/courses being offered ? Not sure by who if by foundation or some other group but was told this by the Verified Partners Squad. A program to learn and even get paid for your work as you learned.

I love the idea of educational classes in DCL, and ones in Spanish is a great idea. What I'm concerned about, is the team submitting multiple proposals for different projects at the same time. I don't think people should do multiple grants at once, as it runs a higher risk of failure and revocation. We've seen this happen before in the DAO, and we are still awaiting funds back from that group now. For that reason I will be voting no.

[quote="Unai, post:10, topic:17341"] Better this proposal than another game click to earn or give mana to distribute as rewards of an LP. [/quote] lol funny how this always comes up with you guys. Suerte!

I would welcome courses in all the languages ​​that are in demand, for example I speak Basque but I don't think a course is necessary because there are hardly any Basques in decentraland. Better this proposal than another game click to earn or give mana to distribute as rewards of an LP. I think education is key in the development of a community. Un saludo amigo ✌️

[quote="Unai, post:8, topic:17341"] If you review the documentation provided by Tony, you will see that 50 people from different parts of the world signed up in 48 hours. [/quote] Rarely click on these links. This is good though. For the record I’m not oppose to offering these. I’m oppose to having more grants being given out for this going forward. Every time 1500 usd under the excuse that is not much which again it might not be to some. You can tell me a course is better than tutorials and I agree, again I would rather have the content that exist already translated and dubbed rather than to fund more 1500 usd grants for same type of proposals. Like I said today we have a course for Spanish tomorrow one for French and the next day in Italian and so on. I speak Spanish - it’s my first language. *Look into MrBeast’s (YouTuber) localization/dubbing strategy*

[quote="Sannin, post:7, topic:17341, full:true"] Never said this is about that, I’m saying I see a lot more beneficial to go thru translation and dubbing of existing video content rather than to fund the Spanish version of what you are proposing since it’s already created and could be applied to every language, do we have an idea of how many users/people would actually sign up or join this course currently? As far as the budget goes there’s 2 more grants being asked by same party and i don’t specifically have an issue with the budget rather than what’s being proposed…again. [/quote] If you review the documentation provided by Tony, you will see that 50 people from different parts of the world signed up in 48 hours. I think he rightly checked if there was interest before submitting the proposal. I tell you again that a tutorial has nothing to do with a course where you have a teacher and classmates with whom you develop a project and have a commitment to attend. Your proposal about translating is good too but is another thing. Maybe similar but not the same definitely. The thing about the three proposals at the same time is because the three proposals where one before and Esteban (founder) asked to separate them. Think again please in people like Lucas or other pioneers that would like to add more value in dcl but the wall of the language does not let them. It is even difficult for me to write this post correctly so that you understand me well. Remember that Spanish is the third language most spoken in the world. Thanks again!!

Never said this is about that, I’m saying I see a lot more beneficial to go thru translation and dubbing of existing video content rather than to fund the Spanish version of what you are proposing since it’s already created and could be applied to every language, do we have an idea of how many users/people would actually sign up or join this course currently?

If it makes sense, avoiding this going forward: A Spanish course grant this time, then next time a Portuguese one, then a German one and so on, when we can easily just translate and dub the content we have now into every language possible.

Hi @Sannin, I think is not about translating tutorials, actually is not about a tutorial, there a lot of tutorials and there will be a lot more. This proposal is about an intensive course where there is a teacher and people can ask and can interact with each other. That is much more enriching than a translation of a tutorial. Students who sign up for a course have a greater commitment and that can make the decentraland community grow in number and quality of creators. Also, as you can see in the discord conversation that you yourself have pasted here, the problem of many Spanish-speaking decentralanders is that they don't speak any English, this proposal talks about breaking barriers. Another thing, there are 36 classes for 1500 USD, that is, 41.67 USD per class plus all the additional content that could be received. It does not seem unreasonable to me, it is the smallest grant. It's always the same, everyone understands what they want and sees it as they want. thanks for the discussion ;)

Voting no, yes 1,500 usd is not a lot in certain parts of the world - in others its considered quite the amount. Aside from asking for 3 separate grants all at the same time (for a total of 60k USD), reason for me to vote no on this is as followed: I believe Sango's Tutorials are great to use if looking to get into blender and modelling for DCL as far as wearables goes. I recall Sango (who received a grant for these tutorials already https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=91ebcb80-e8a5-11ec-82d9-d917cdd158ac) suggesting to Lucasol (another grantee for spanish speaking content) to translate and dub the already made videos into spanish. I believe this is a lot more cost efficient to DAO rather than to keep funding the same props, to translate and dub not just in Spanish but in every languange every possible tutorial video in DCL whether that's how to make wearables, scenes/builds or using the sdk. 

I also don't understand the people who vote no to this proposal that seeks to give a lot of value to a large community (Spanish speakers in decentraland) with a very low grant. I think it is a dynamic that consists of blocking any activity that is not the interest of 4 jealous whales. Then they complain that there are few users in decentraland. Anyway, they will wake up, this will not stop the true Latino, Spanish or Martian creators. Ah… I vote yes!!

Fully YES. We are 480 Million Spanish speakers around the world. It's a small investment that may have a high impact. Great initiative, guys. Btw, I'd love to read the argument of those members voting NO.

Full support, vote yes. In the dcl community there is potential and we need more people with initiatives and being able to reach the Spanish language like ours is important, receiving comments, contributions, advice, etc.
