	Teach The Web
	Owner: Michelle Thorne, Laura Hilliger, Kat Braybrooke, William Duyck, Doug Belshaw	Updated: 2014-03-4
	Mozilla's Teach The Web team helps people teach the theory and practice of the web, and how local communities can plug into the global web literacy movement.

Who we are

The Teach The Web team is embedded within the larger Webmaker team. Mozilla Webmaker builds tools, curriculum and communities that teach web literacy. The Teach the Web team's specialties within this offering include training, teaching kits, credentials and skills-mapping.

We work based on the following principles, which apply to each of our practices below:

• A process built on principles of co-design.
  • We prototype, playtest and remix.
• Focused on a global, peer-led community.
  • We are localized, global and culturally-specific.
• Working with open source, modular and easily remixable formats.
  • Whether it's the Web Literacy map, teaching kits, or training.

Badges

The Teach The Web team is working on several badges to recognise skills and competencies around Web Literacy and teaching the web.

Web Literacy (competency) badges

The Web Literacy Map is a flexible specification of the skills and competencies that Mozilla and our community of stakeholders believe are important to pay attention to when getting better at reading, writing and participating on the web.
