About this Project

The Mozilla Learning team is hard at work defining a set of core web literacy skills and developing learning pathways for people to develop and hone these skills. Our goals are to develop and empower more webmakers by providing them with the opportunity to learn making by making. This work is leveraging all of the great momentum, tools and content built through Hackasaurus.

NOTE: The Open Badges project is also part of the Learning Group. For more on that project, see this page
