'''From June - August, 2013 we're inviting you to join a campaign for web literacy, making, and connected learning.''' We're engaging hundreds of thousands of people to create things on the web, with hardware, and on paper - '''from schools and libraries to hackerspaces and kitchen tables.'''

The campaign will also bring organizations from the worlds of DIY, making, and learning together to build the movement that will help foster a generation of makers and advance connected learning. '''This is an open, distributed campaign. Anyone can participate if you care about these themes.'''
We're doing this because we believe that more people will benefit from being [[Learning/WebLiteracyStandard | web literate]]. That means understanding a range of skills, from knowing how to navigate a web page to other competencies like web privacy, security as well as online collaboration and openness.
