  • Building on the Web
  • Open Educational Resources (OER)
  • The Web is a massive, shifting repository of human knowledge. We should empower learners to engage this ecosystem and make the Web they want to use. Mozilla developed the Web Literacy Map to help you do just that.

  • The Design Process
  • authentic assessments
  • experiential learning
  • In "Design Challenges" learners select a problem, conduct research with users, prototype a solution, give and receive feedback, and iterate to produce a final project.
  • Feedback is the glue of the Web
  • Constructive Criticism
  • Feedback is the basis for open source culture
  • Giving constructive criticism (and receiving it) is something that takes practice. We adhere to “if you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all” because we don't believe that our opinions are necessary. We forget that criticism doesn't have to lead to complete redesign or reformulation.
  • delivering feedback
  • We also tend to spend time focusing on our own things, rather than looking at other people's ideas and thinking about making them better.
  • We ask for feedback and expect to get some, but we rarely give our feedback freely – we wait until our specific feedback is requested or until the work directly affects our own. We all know how fantastic it is to get good, constructive feedback on something we're working on. What if we all took more time to give feedback like that to others? What would happen?
  • the Web is, by its nature, collaborative
  • the power of the open Web comes from our ability to share. In the learning experiences we design, when we create spaces to share our work with each other, we model the way the Web works. These complex social spaces encourage freedom of expression and honesty.
  • Collaboration builds empathy

    The decline in demand for MBA's coupled with the overly optimistic interest in STEM is symptomatic of a bigger problem which is the fragmentation of business disciplines and the latent need for a new School of Innovation at universities that would be a professional school similar to law and medicine to educate a new group of leaders who are innovators. Innovators are T-shaped people with broad knowledge in STEM, marketing, finance, law, and operations and deep knowledge and experience in at least one discipline. Innovators learn a new fourth generation (4G) of innovation theory and practice that includes upgrades in disciplines such as finance to measure intangible capital that drives innovation more than tangible capital, upgrades in marketing to more effectively discover latent market opportunities with analytic big data insights tested with experiential intervention experiments, upgrades in entrepreneurship that operates inside an existing company, and the skilled capability to create and operate innovation hubs such as the new Department of Energy innovation hubs required to transform industries with radical innovation governed by new dominant designs. The 21st century is the Age of Innovation and we need innovation to be a new professional discipline supported by new Schools of Innovation and a career path in companies leading to the Chief Innovation Officer, which was first defined in the 1998 book, Fourth Generation R&D.

  • At the heart of the Maker Party campaign, Webmaker tools/resources, and Hive Learning Network is the Web Literacy Map which outlines what we think are the important skills and competencies needed to be literate on the web
  • Hive Learning Network, a project of Mozilla, is comprised of organizations (libraries, museums, schools and non-profit start-ups) and individuals (educators, designers,  community catalysts and makers). Together, they create opportunities for youth to gain digital and analog skills to learn within and beyond the confines of traditional classroom experiences, design innovative practices and tools that provide opportunities for greater impact, and contribute to their own professional development within an active community of practice.

  • At the core of connected learning are three values:
  • Equity
  • Full Participation
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • Interest-powered
  • In order to realize these values, connected learning seeks to harness and integrate the learning that young people pursue in the spheres of interest, peer relations, and academics based on the following three learning principles:
  • Social connection
  • Peer-supported
  • Academically oriented
  • Connected learning builds on what we’ve long known about the value and effectiveness of interest-driven, peer-supported, and academically relevant learning; but in addition, connected learning calls on today’s interactive and networked media in an effort to make these forms of learning more effective, better integrated, and broadly accessible. The following design principles involve integrating the spheres of interests, peers, and academics, and broadening access through the power of today’s technology.
  • Shared purpose
  • Production-centered
  • Openly networked
  • The principles of connected learning weren’t born in the digital age, but they are extraordinarily well-suited to it.
