Why does Mozilla care about Web literacy?
https://mozilla.github.io/webmaker-whitepaper/
“[O]ur world changed in April 1993 when the Mosaic 1.0 browser was released to the general public. We need new forms of education. We need to reform our learning institutions, concepts, and modes of assessment for our age. Now, anyone with access to the World Wide Web can go far beyond the passive consumer model to contribute content on the Web. We can customize and remix, alone or in collaboration with others, located anywhere on the Web.
That Do-It-Yourself potential for connected, participatory, improvisational learning requires new skills, what many are calling new “literacies”.”
-Davidson, 2012
Mozilla understands web literacy to be the skills and competencies required to read, write and participate effectively on the web
