[OH-Alumni] Join Mozilla for Teach the Web, a free and open online course beginning May 2 (fwd)

[Asheesh Laroia]

Hi all Open Source Comes to Campus alumni,

Mozilla is running a free online course called "Teach the Web", and you 
might be interested in it! (Thanks to Will Kahn-Greene for sending this 
along to me!)

It "begins" today, but as a free online course, you don't actually need to 
show up starting this very day. But you should go click around and sign up 
if you want to learn this!

Hi Mozilla!

As part of our Webmaker initiative, Mozilla is proposing that web
literacy—the understanding of how digital things work—is an essential
life skill for the 21st century. We want to empower /users/ of the web
to become /makers/ of the web.

So we're kicking-off a free online course called Teach the Web: a
Mozilla Open Online Collaboration, where we'll explore new ways of
teaching digital literacies through making and learning together.

The #teachtheweb course will run from May 2 - June 30. You can
participate in weekly guided discussions, tackle hands-on activities,
develop and remix teaching resources, and compare notes with a global
community of makers, mentors and educators. The MOOC is self serve -
take what you need, adapt it to fit your schedule.

Find more details or sign up and get started at http://webmaker.org/teach

*Participants will learn how to:*

   * teach digital literacies through making, remixing and sharing
   * incorporate openness and online innovation into teaching practices
   * adapt educational resources to meet your learners' interests and needs
   * receive feedback from peers on your own resources and lessons

We hope you'll join us!
