WEBMAKER CONTRIBUTORS do three things: TEACH, BUILD and ORGANIZE.

Teaching

• Teaching. Teach web literacy with our stuff. In classrooms, informal spaces and at events.

• Assessment. Review and critique learners' and mentors' work (e.g., to review and issue Webmaker badges)
• Curation. Gather resources that help others learn and teach the web. Organize community-contributed content.
• Support. Help with documentation and Webmaker product support.
• Advocacy. Advance web literacy. Tell the story. Recruit more contributors.

Building

• Code. Submit patches to Webmaker tools. Experiment in new areas like Appmaker.
• Localization. Remix, translate and localize content and tools.

• QA and User Testing. Ensure the quality and diversity of Webmaker offerings. Participate in live and asynchronous testing.
• MakeAPI. Integrate with and build on top of the MakeAPI.

METRICS

• # of content contributors. Users who tag items using web literacy map on webmaker.org.
• # of patch submitters. Users who submit a patch (not just file a bug) on Bugzilla or Git Hub.
• # of localizers. Users who make a significant contribution to localizing through Transifex.

Organizing

• Events. Host an aligned event (for Maker Party or Hive) or session (MozFest, DML, etc.)
• Local networks. Grow existing Hive networks and establish new ones.

• Campaigns. Participate in and partner with Maker Party. Organize local campaigns and outreach.
• Training. Train other trainers, teachers, organizers and mentors.
• Partnerships. 'Bulk recruiting' contributors via like minded orgs and networks.

METRICS

• # of event hosts on webmaker.org
  • Note: to be effective, this metric will rely on data coming in from broader networks, communities and partners
