Web literacy? (v0.1)

30 January 2012 • Education, digital literacies, literacy, Michelle Levesque, Mozilla, visualisation, web literacy

Update: Michelle’s now created a diagram from her original post.

Michelle Levesque asked for feedback on this: Mozilla’s Web Literacy Skills (v0.1 alpha). I wanted to respond as soon as possible as I think she’s done some great work here.

I’ve visualised the text in her post and then tweaked it slightly to suggest the direction I’d take it:

Changes:

Added ‘participation’ to Exploring
Changed ‘bullshit’ to ‘crap’ to avoid offending some people’s sensibilities
Changed ‘Restaurant HTML’ to ‘HTML basics’ in Authoring
Combined two blocks to form ‘Reacting to stimulii’ in Building
Removed ‘Receipe’ize tasks’ in Building
Added ‘Civil liberties’ to Protecting
Segmented sections into what would form a ‘Basic’ and an ‘Advanced’ badge’

What do you think? What have I (we) missed?
