We are part of a broader alliance of organizations including, for example, foundations like the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the MacArthur Foundation, Sloan Foundation, and Knight Foundation. The development of Mozilla products relies upon community involvement and contribution. Ours: it’s open to everyone and we define it.Interoperable: it presents opportunity to play and innovate.Knowable: it’s transparent – we can see it and understand it.Whether through the thousands of volunteers who write code for Firefox or the growing community that is designing courses for teaching the web, Mozilla strives for an Internet that is: Mozilla helps people develop web literacy: we help them build, not just consume, the technology, media and information that makes up the web. This act of human collaboration across an open platform we believe to be essential to individual growth and our collective future. We collaborate on a global basis to ensure everyone can be informed contributors and creators of the web. That Do-It-Yourself potential for connected, participatory, improvisational learning requires new skills, what many are calling new “literacies”.” – Davidson, 2012įounded in 1998, Mozilla is a global community of technologists, teachers and makers working together to keep the Internet 1 open, accessible and editable. We can customize and remix, alone or in collaboration with others, located anywhere on the Web. Now, anyone with access to the World Wide Web can go far beyond the passive consumer model to contribute content on the Web. We need to reform our learning institutions, concepts, and modes of assessment for our age.
