==== Activities  ====
===== Proposed Activities  =====
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/StateWebEducation|'''The State of Web Education''']] - In this session, Chris Mills will help you to understand the current challenges for people teaching and learning web development skills and talk about what solutions are being made available. This should provide a space focus and start conversations to carry through the next 2 days.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WebCraftGuild|'''The Web Craft Guild''']] - OWEA, Opera Developer Network, Mozilla Developer Network, School of Webcraft, Scrunchup all have a shared goal to help people learn about how to work with the web. How can we cooperate?
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WebcraftSkillsMap|'''Shape the Webcraft Skills Map''']] -&nbsp; Using the Webcraft skills map as a base we'll explore the skills all web professionals need and the specialist skills that distinguish designer from developer, user experience expert from interface designer.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WebCraftExploration|'''The Ideas and Values of Web Craft''']] - Using the Web Craft definition as a starting point can we identify and refine the ideas and values we should be encouraging in young web developers?
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/teachingaccess|'''Teaching Accessibility''']] - Creating websites that are accessible to the broadest number of users possible is one of the core values of web developers. Speak with Sandi Wassmer and Henny Swan about accessible design and workshop ways to teach this attitude and related skills to developers of all skills levels.
*Webcraft badges w Badge lab.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/MDNasOER|'''Learning with Mozilla Developer Network''']] - Janet Swisher of MDN will present some recently create or updated content on open web standards. We'll begin to explore it and give feedback on its usability as tools for classrooms and self guided learning.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WaSPHowToUse|'''Remixing WaSP Interact''']] - Using the WaSP Interact curriculum as a base we'll explore ways to incorporate content into an existing course at a tertiary level. We'll also look at how non-academic audiences such as P2PU School of Webcraft and independent learners can remix the content to make it more relevant for their needs.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WebcraftCreateCourses|'''Create a P2PU School of Webcraft Course''']] - Explore course ideas for the next round of Webcraft. Develop course proposals that consider participant requirements and learning objectives. Learn how to collaborate with the community and course participants to refine your course idea.
*Workshop 1 (Working with Web Fonts) - Dave Crossland
*Workshop 2 (Learn Javascript with Processing.JS and Sketchpad) - JD and Ari
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/TeachingNonTechnicalStaff|'''How to teach marketers about web standards and inclusive design''']] - In most companies non-technical staff like marketers inevitably end up being responsible for procurement of web sites, but because these groups of people largely don't understand the concepts of open standards and inclusive design, they therefore end up with web sites that are unusuable and inaccessible to a lesser or greater degree. In this session, Sandi Wassmer will tackle this problem, talking about what non-technical professionals need to know, and how to get it over to them in a way they will understand. Your opinions and discussion are of course very welcome.
*[[Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/YoungPeopleOnTheWeb|'''How young people are getting into the web''']] - In this session, Anna Debenham will give you some of her unique insights into how young people are gettinn into web design and development, how current education efforts are failing them, what they are doing to work around it, and what could be done to improve things. This session will include a sample exam for attendees to take, to show them what official curricula are currently like.
===== Ongoing activities:<br>  =====
*'''Web Craft skills map''' -- Continuing on from the focus session looking at the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Drumbeat/events/Festival/program/WebcraftSkillsMap skills map] help us identify what different types of web developers need to know.<br>
*'''Propose a Course''' -- fill in a form with your course idea for the P2PU School of Webcraft and help build a community of developers who support Mozilla's aim for an open and innovative web.
