State of Mozilla: Mark Surman ''How are we teaching the world about the Web?''
-
0:04 - 0:07People love to learn together
-
0:07 - 0:10It is at the core of what Webmaker is invitation to do
-
0:11 - 0:13To use community to teach and learn
-
0:13 - 0:16It's at the core of how we do App Days
-
0:16 - 0:19It's not people just watching a Youtube or it isn't people watching a Youtube video
-
0:20 - 0:23It's our community teaching and learning with people
-
0:24 - 0:25That's how Mozilla teaches
-
0:25 - 0:26Community's at the core of it
-
0:26 - 0:28It is in our DNA
-
0:29 - 0:34But the thing is, if we want to teach at this scale, we are gonna need to do,
-
0:34 - 0:38In order to even move the mobile market where we wanted to be with the web,
-
0:39 - 0:44And certainly if we imagine the kind of level of web literacy that I think is needed
-
0:44 - 0:47In order for people to really take control of their own online lives
-
0:47 - 0:50We are gonna need to massively scale,
-
0:50 - 0:54the community people who help us teach the web to the world
-
0:54 - 0:57So, this is where Webmaker fits in
-
0:57 - 0:59which is new, still in it's infancy
-
1:00 - 1:04The sky is the limit, in terms of what we can build their as we call people to action to do that teaching
-
1:05 - 1:09To teach regular people how to move from being users of the web to makers of the web
-
1:10 - 1:14But the other thing that's there now is the most significant seed I think what we need to do
-
1:15 - 1:17is this idea of maker parties
-
1:17 - 1:19The idea just getting people into a room
-
1:19 - 1:22and teaching them a little bit about the web
-
1:22 - 1:25Whatever the ideas, using those tools on the site or other tools
-
1:26 - 1:30In over the last 3 months, we did almost 1700 of them with our community
-
1:30 - 1:33we, this teaching piece of it,
-
1:33 - 1:36while really cored to our mission,
-
1:36 - 1:41really cored to the idea of the internet as a public benefit, open to all
-
1:41 - 1:44is also key to winning in the market
