source

Greetings to Prof @benton3 and the kids in the house.I am @goodnessbaby and I wish to participate in the Steemkids cryptoacademy class.I have learnt a lot from the class.

Question 1

What Is Proof of Brain and How Does It Work

Proof of Brain is a process where content creators write quality and original contents that would attract a lot of readers,comments and engagement.It is the proper utilization of the brain power to write good contents that everyone would love to read.Such post must be free from plagiarism.

On Steemit,there is a reward pool from which curators distribute rewards.However,the reward distribution is judged from the wisdom of the curator(s) where they can differenciate between quality and poor contents.Quality contents are voted(curated).

In summary,Proof of Brain is the ability to write quality content which the curators will use human wisdom to spot and vote quality contents.

Question 2

Explain What Curation Is

Curation means finding a quality content, checking whether it was plagiarised or not, resteeming it,comment on it,and then voting it.

This means that curation does not just mean to vote a post,it involves checking the originality of the post,if the post was plagiarised,it would be reported so that necessary action would be taken.If it was not plagiarised,it should be conented on, resteemed,and voted.The curator gets a curation reward while the author gets an author reward.

Question 3

How Can We Increase Our SteemPower

There are many ways we can increase our SteemPower.Here are they.

•We can increase our SteemPower by setting our post earnings to 100% power up instead of 50 Sp/50 sbd.By so doing,all the post reward would be in form of SteemPower.

•We can increase our SteemPower through investment.This involves using cash to buy steem and then power it up to SteemPower.

•We can also I create our SteemPower by converting our SBD to Steem and then power it up.

•Curation is another way to increase our SteemPower.When you vote a post,you the curator also get a share(like half) of the voting value.And curation regards are always on form of SteemPower.

•We can increase our SteemPower by writing quality contents which would be voted with high value.

Question 4

What are the Benefits of Powering up

Powering increases our influence on Steemit and so one has to power up.
Another benefit of Powering up is it helps the user to make more money from curation(curation reward).

Powering up helps to increase the SteemPower and reputation of a user.It also increases the followers they a user hass

One can power up to support community through voting.Whem you have enough SteemPower,your voting value will drop.
