Overview
The Pilot Fish project is being developed to help integrate participation in the electronic frontier - especially open source and participatory online projects such as Wikipedia - into the modern educational curriculum.
Initial Goals and Milestones
The first stages of the project are designed to:
- quickly develop our understanding of what is currently happening in the intersecting space between participatory online projects, open source and education
- develop a list of the critical success factors for electronic frontier education projects
- identify the key participants, thought leaders and potential early adopters in the space
Budget
The early budget consists of Mozilla Foundation staff time.
Process
Our first pass at this is meant to be lightweight and quick. We'll improve the process and define our goals more clearly once we know what is going on in the broad space.
Research
Most of the early research is focused on building a good understanding of the state of electronic frontier education. A key first step is cataloging the people and organizations who are (or have been) working in the area.
