* new way to teach & learn web developer skills* our goal: a vibrant, peer-led system that helps people around the world easily access and build careers on open web technology

* the problem: developer certification that’s expensive, out of touch, and out of reach* the solution: peer learning on demand, powered by you, me & (almost) everyone we know

Questions?

Research Q’s?

Write down something you would like to teach or impart to others.

(It doesn’t have to be related to web development; it can be anything that

interests you!)

<example> from Web 200: Anatomy of a Request

“Draw how the Internet works.”

What makes this a good or bad School of Webcraft challenge?

✓ simple setup, complex problem✓ having clear goals✓ having a “need to know”✓ assessment is embedded?✓ risk-taking & exploration?✓ sense of agency?✓ many solutions to the same problem✓ fun and replayability

What is this challenge missing?

Some things to keep in mind:

What’s the goal of the challenge? * What’s the benefit to learners? *

What are they making? *

Discuss:* Does this approach work for other fields besides web development?* What scaffolding/support/mentorship is needed to help users work through the challenges (we want this to be "social" learning)?
