* | Webmaker Product / App | ||
* | |||
* | We want to build online rich and transformative learning experiences, like we currently deliver offline with Maker Party. With this goal in mind, we will double down on efforts to create software that helps users a) make content and b) learn / mentor along the way. First step is to launch a Webmaker App on Firefox OS and Android which makes it easy to create web native apps and content. We’ll begin to integrate a chat / social component that makes it easy for people to learn and mentor using the app. We will roll this experience back onto the desktop Webmaker.org site. Depending on interest (see below) we may also roll this work into an offering more tightly tied to Firefox. | ||
While Webmaker App will appear like a new part of the offering to end users, it leverages and shares much of what exists in Webmaker: Webmaker accounts; MakeDrive filesystem; Appmaker brick / web component model; X-Ray Goggles; brand and UX elements. Note: this is the evolution of the ‘Appmaker on Devices’ project w/ the Marketplace team as part of our GSMA initiative. | |||
Target market: learners and mentors, initially on Android and Firefox OS. | |||
=Dependencies= | |||
* '''Mentor Team''': mentor team input on requirements, field testing the app /app templates and developing supporting curriculum. Also: Designing ways for mentors to participate online in the same way they have offline with Maker Parties. | |||
* '''Seneca College''': continued funding and students from Seneca College to work on the development of the project. | |||
* '''Marketing and BD''': MoCo and MoFo marketing teams for promotion at the top of the funnel (ie. creating uniques to convert). Also, BD deals with carriers as part of Mobile Opportunity? Need more detail? | |||
* '''FXOS''': the idea of shipping Webmaker App as a default with FXOS has been on the table for a while now. Do we want to do this? | |||
