Webmaker/Mentor HOWTO
Follow the steps below to add your project to the gallery of resources for mentors and educators at webmaker.org/teach. That way others can use it, remix it, localize it and teach with it!
Please note: we're working on an easier and more streamlined process for this. But in the mean time, here's how.
How to add your project to webmaker.org/teach
- Open your project. Open the project in your browser using your unique Thimble URL.
- Add "/remix" to the end of the URL. This will open up the editing page, so you can make changes.
- Sign in. Click "Sign in to save" and log in with your Persona account.
- Set up your webmaker domain. If you haven't yet set up a subdomain, you'll be prompted to do so. Your subdomain -- like "jane.makes.org" -- will become the home for everything you make on Webmaker. This makes it easy for you to collect, share and edit all your stuff. Cool, huh?
- Give your project a title. Enter it between the <title> and </title> tags.
- Tag your project. Adding the right meta-tag to your project's HTML will make it appear on the /teach section of webmaker.org. You want to tag it as a "guide." Here's how:
Between your project's <head> and </head> tags at the top, add this: <meta content="guide" name="webmaker:tags">
Now hit publish. That's it! You're done.
Thanks for sharing! Your project is now organized under webmaker.org/teach -- so that others can use it, remix it, localize it and share it with others. Nice work!
Share your link! Now that your project is on webmaker.org/teach , share your project with the Mentor G+ Community or use the #teachtheweb hashtag on Twitter.
