Play: The Tools of Webmaking","Handle":"Make-Hack-Play:The_Tools_of_Webmaking","ShortDescription":"Playing with the X-Ray Goggles, Thimble and Popcorn, participants  will explore concepts of interest-based learning through  tinkering with Mozilla Webmaking tools and learning projects. \r\nThis workshop will build understanding around how embedding webmaking in project based curriculum will lead to innovative problem  solving, creative thinking and a desire for  tinkering.","Description":"The web is becoming the world\u2019s second language, and a vital 21st century skill.  Digital literacy today is as important as reading, writing and  arithmetic. Mozilla believes it\u2019s crucial that we give people the skills  they need to understand, shape and actively participate in that world,  instead of just passively consuming it.\r\nYou don\u2019t have to be a professional coder or programmer to be a webmaker.  In the same way that you don\u2019t have to be a professional baker to make bread, or a professional auto mechanic to change a tire, you shouldn\u2019t have to be a professional web developer to understand how the web works \u2014 or make your own stuff. We want to help you go \u201cbeyond upload\u201d to unlock new opportunities for creativity and innovation in your life and work.\r\nMozilla Webmaker wants to help you make something amazing with the web. We\u2019ve got new tools for you to use, projects to help you get started, and a global community of creators \u2014 educators, filmmakers, journalists, developers, youth \u2014 all making and learning together.\r\nThe goal: help millions of people move from using the web to making the web. As part of Mozilla\u2019s non-profit mission,  we want to help the world increase their understanding of the web, take  greater control of their online lives, and create a more web literate  planet.","Link":[],"Audience":["All School Levels"],"Practice":"In this conversation,  participants will use laptops to explore Webmaker tools and learn about the basic building blocks of the Web.
