{{admon/note|Latest on Clubs| [http://mozilla.github.io/webmaker-curriculum/about/ Program update from Feb 2015] }}
 
=Clubs: Preamble=
* '''higher quality teaching and learning.''' How can the teaching and learning experience be improved for mentors and learners?
* '''local community networks.''' How can local learning communities grow stronger and more networked through WebmakerMozilla? * '''contributor retention.''' How can mentors be encouraged engage with Webmaker Mozilla longer?
We believe the best way to design a solution is to '''build it in the open with lead users and partners based on their needs and interests.''' It should be tested with real mentors and learners and be agile.
This document describes how we imagine that process working and what we're learning along the way.

=What Clubs are=
'''Hypothesis:''' The Hive networks have been greatly successful in having local roots with global community. They are lab and classroom for web literacy. Webmaker Clubs can find a sweetspot in these ecosystems that brings something new (like particular stance on web literacy and community leadership) while leveraging and integrating what exists.
 
=Club Creators=
 
This is a group of collaborators with whom we'll co-develop the club initiative. It is a mixture of larger learning networks and individuals who are dedicated to teaching the web. We have worked closely with them on a variety of projects already, including Hive, Maker Party and Mozfest.
 
Whatever we build, it will be shaped deeply by the needs and ideas of this group. '''They are our distributed leadership.''' They bring expertise and experience, and '''our offering should be in service to them.'''

= Club Cohorts =
If you've done local programming like this already or have tested a club as part of another cohort, you could mentor others who are testing. You can advise and coach the testers as well as provide additional insight and analysis on what's working.
 
= Club Working Groups =
 
There are also working groups that may span several rounds of testing. These groups focus deeply on a particular aspect of the clubs. They will do competitive analysis, research and codesign on their key topic as part of the larger process.
 
Each working group has a facilitator and a rhythm for meeting and hacking together.
 
== [[Webmaker/2015/Mentors/Clubs/Curriculum | Curriculum]] ==
 
We will continue to write and test the club activities and instructions with the club creators. We are aiming for '''at least 3 modules,''' as well as '''examples & simple ways to remix these foundational modules for different audiences''' (e.g. libraries, afterschool programs, family at home, etc.)

== Online platform ==
 
As we codesign clubs, we need also need to build and test an online tool that helps people connect, level up and create their own space. Here's a [http://mzl.la/1CVHZVt roadmap to building the platform.]
 
See more technical requirements: [https://mofoportland.etherpad.mozilla.org/mentortechreqs] and [https://teach.etherpad.mozilla.org/requirements], as well as a growing [https://hive.etherpad.mozilla.org/affiliates competitor analysis].
 
We anticipate needing features in the following areas:
 
=== Communicating and Organizing ===
* better Discourse
* lightweight communications outreach (email 10K)
 
=== Onboarding and Training ===
* fixed up badges / credentialing
* a light-weight activity (could overlap w. what Webmaker product)
 
=== Storytelling and Incentivizing ===
* a web presence that can be easily edited (teach.webmaker.org)
 
== Mentor Development ==
These are the social patterns and protocols we think successful local clubs, as well as a global network for mentors, will need. We'll also focus on open practices, an ethos of learning by making, and facilitative leadership.
 
Mentor development includes training, professional development, onboarding and the opportunity to practice and get feedback with peers.
 
=== Watch one, do one, teach one ===
A pattern in all of our offering is the triple of first observing, practicing and then sharing it forward.
 
=== Learning by making ===
Less yack, more hack. Don't talk about it, do it. Experiential learning. Learn by doing, not by powerpoint.
 
=== Awaken the teacher in everyone ===
Everyone has the capacity to share their skills. We want learning to be more magnetic and exciting that you want to share it forward.
