Follow these simple steps to share your ideas, passion and webmaking expertise with the world.
Step 1: Get a Mozilla wiki account
Go to the Mozilla wiki and click the login/create account button to sign up for a wiki account. This will give you editing priviledges so that you can add your own DIY Project, and also collaborate on the hundreds of other articles contributed by Mozilla community members.
Step 2: Check out this sample DIY Project and copy the content:
Here is a great example of a wiki DIY Webmaker Project entry created by Hive NYC.
Take a look at this example and if you'd like, go into the Page Source to copy and paste the content if your own wiki (step 3) to edit.
Step 3: Create your own wiki page for your project
Alright, now it's your turn! To get started, you are going to need to create your own page in the wiki. To do this, in your url bar type:
"https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmakers/Projects/Nameofyourproject"
- Edit where it says "NameofYourProject" to the unique title for your project.
- When you go to the page,if that url does not exist, it should say:
"There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or edit this page." - Click "Edit this page" on the top right side of the navigation. Now you can past the copy from the Inanimate Alice wiki (step 2) or you can get started writing your own steps. Your project should include:
- an introductory paragraph explaining what your learner will be MAKING as part of the project and why is that important, what skills they will be getting out of this.
- a list of steps. Scaffolding can help your learners overcome difficulties that might keep them from moving forward. Create a trajectory of smaller steps that a learner needs to take in order to complete the project
- images/video/music. Don't make a boring DIY, add some pizazz to your project.
