><li><b>How to Get Involved</b><ul><li>The students had these questions, can we provide crowdsourced responses:<br/><br
>&nbsp;<br
/><ul><li>"Why&nbsp; did we immediately accept Mozilla's stance that everyone should be a&nbsp; webmaker when the question of if they should or should not is still not&nbsp; answered?"</li
/>================================================================<br
><li>"The mission of a web literate world is easy to understand, the goal of focusing on turning everyone into a webmaker is less clear.&nbsp; If make-to learn is about learning to code, what are some of the arguments as to why that's important?"&nbsp;</li
/><b>Standing Communications Update:</b><br
><li>"To&nbsp; achieve the goal of everyone as webmaker, does mozilla need to help all&nbsp; types and capacities? only beginners or shy people, or people who might&nbsp; not consider themselves makers? or also eager maker?"</li
/>&nbsp;<br
><li>"Why&nbsp; is the remix so central to everything about Webmaker? Have they&nbsp; considered that some people may not easily find their way into webmaking&nbsp; by tinkering as a first step?"</li
/><b>What's on our calendar? Take a look:</b><br
><li>"Is&nbsp; the remix the right approach? A remix could prove too limiting to those&nbsp; who come to Webmaker with the drive to create something of their own."&nbsp;</li
/><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlElFmjaWi-0dC1XX1ZrdkR4NUVwUVlveUFnRFpYQ0E&usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlElFmjaWi-0dC1XX1ZrdkR4NUVwUVlveUFnRFpYQ0E&amp;usp=sharing</a><br
><li>"As&nbsp; the web is right now more an exploring platform than a creating one, if&nbsp; everybody start creating their own things on the web can make more&nbsp; difficult for the others the exploring part of the web?"<br/><br

#teachtheweb -- Michelle Thorne

 

  • We’d like to try an experiment in a distributed “marketplace” for webmaking. 
  • The idea is simple: use the hashtag #teachtheweb to ask for and offer help.
  • You can use the #teachtheweb hashtag to ask for help:   
    • “I’m looking for someone to help teach Javascript at a webmaking event in Athens. #teachtheweb”
  • You can also offer help. Say, for example:   
    • “I work with youth at my hackerspace and am happy to share activities they like. #teachtheweb”
  • Not only for event needs/offers, but also for learning resources, inspirational stories, feedback, etc. 
  • Betatesting from now until May. Since this is an experiment, we can’t anticipate how well the tag will work. 
  • Dive in! Write a tweet, respond to one. Let us know what you think.
