== | == Introduction == | ||
This standard comprises the skills and competencies [http://mozilla.org Mozilla] and the community believe it is important to pay attention to for getting better at reading, writing and participating on the web. It is not a diagnostic tool. Our aim is to define the skills and competencies in such a way that they are specific enough to be able to have meaning, while not being so specific as to limit innovation. We wish to <em>describe</em>, not prescribe as there are many contexts in which the Web Literacy Standard could be used. | |||
