TL;DR:<\/strong> Mozilla is working with the community to update the Web Literacy Map<\/a> to v2.0. You can read more about the project below, or jump straight in and take the survey<\/a> or join the community calls<\/a>.

Introduction<\/h3>\n

Mozilla defines web literacy as the skills and competencies needed for reading, writing and participating on the web<\/em>. To chart these skills and competencies, we worked alongside a community of stakeholders in 2013 to create the Web Literacy Map<\/a>. You can read more about why Mozilla cares about web literacy in this Webmaker Whitepaper<\/a>.
\nThe Web Literacy Map underpins the work we do with Webmaker and, in particular, the Webmaker resources section<\/a>. As the web develops and evolves, we have committed to keeping the Web Literacy Map up-to-date. That’s why we’ve begun work on a version 2.0 of the Web Literacy Map.
\nTo date, we’ve interviewed 38 stakeholders<\/a> on what they believe the Web Literacy Map is doing well, and how it could be improved. We boiled down their feedback to 21 emerging themes<\/a> for Web Literacy Map v2.0 and some ideas for how Webmaker could be improved<\/a>.

Community survey<\/h3>\n

From the 21 emerging themes mentioned above, we identified five proposals<\/a> that would help shape further discussion about the Web Literacy Map. These are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I believe the Web Literacy Map should explicitly reference the Mozilla manifesto<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. I believe the three strands should be renamed \u2018Reading\u2019, ‘Writing\u2019 and ‘Participating\u2019.<\/li>\n
  3. I believe the Web Literacy Map should look more like a ‘map\u2019.<\/li>\n
  4. I believe that concepts such as ‘Mobile\u2019, ‘Identity\u2019, and ‘Protecting\u2019 should be represented as cross-cutting themes in the Web Literacy Map.<\/li>\n
  5. I believe a ‘remix\u2019 button should allow me to remix the Web Literacy Map for my community and context.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We’ve added these to a survey* which is available in the following languages:<\/p>\n
