During 2009, we want to experiment with Mozilla Education -- helping people learn about Mozilla through an open, participatory and distributed approach to education. Building on [http://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2009/01/05/integrated-revised-2010-goals/ Mozilla's 2010 goals], our big picture aim is to: <write short summary blockquote>Make openness, participation and distributed decision-making more common experiences in Internet life</blockquote> We think that education can help us reach this goal by helping more people to: # Understand and use (Mozilla's?) open source work methods# Learn about and build with open web and Mozilla technologies# Participate in Mozilla and other open source projects In 2009, we'll test out a number of strategy here>small programs aimed at reaching these objectives. They include: # ''' Seneca Expansion / Virtual Seneca''' offering Mozilla learning resources and support to students everywhere.# '''Madrid Summer Course''' at URJC, establishing the first formal Mozilla course beyond Seneca and establishing an educational foundation in Europe.# '''Online Mozilla Courses''' that provide learning and engagement opportunities directly to potential Mozilla contributors.# '''education.mozilla.org''' where all Mozilla courseware and learning information can be found. Over time, we hope these programs will also make a broader contribute to creating a new participatory learning model based around open source contribution ... and to work with others who share this vision. However, for now, we want to start with something doable: making a formal link between education, learning and the Mozilla community. The (still under construction) plans for Mozilla Education are detailed on this page, and a number of sub-pages.
