6 years ago Hey @anistuhin, the Web Literacy team has reviewed your session and we think it's great! We have a question regarding your stipend request: will you be able to attend the festival in the event that we do not have a stipend available to allocate to you?

6 years ago Hi Ryan, thanks for asking.
Considering the event to be held in London, I don't think I could afford it. Still, I think, I can take care of small things like meals, local transportations etc but not the accommodation and airfare.
Btw, being a regular Mozilla contributor for around 5 years now, I have huge experience organizing large events, managing logistics, and coordinating volunteers. I was waiting for the "Call for volunteers" as well. I think while I am not facilitating sessions, I would love to work as a volunteer during or pre-event time :)
Let me know if you have any more queries, thanks.

What will happen in your session?
I would like to share some common good practices, as a regular web user to follow so that we are safe from the web-traps, both from a user perspective and a developer(web-builder) perspective. But having experience of taking many sessions and also following MozFest for years, I know the sessions must be engaging and interactive. So, I thought why not do it using a game where everyone can participate regardless any age group or profession or background.
We will play "Scrabble" on the wall using sticky notes to form words only related to "Technology". And then a 5-10 min presentation sharing some very simple yet effective good practices for both users and developers.
What is the goal or outcome of your session?
Participant will share their experience or the definition or anything why they think it to be a word related to technology after forming a word, so that others can know about it. This way each participant will have a chance to play a role in the session sharing something related to technology/web. This year’s Web Literacy space is a place for sharing, discussing, and learning the superpowers of the Internet and I think through this game we will be able to do all of that.
After the game, a small presentation will let us be more aware, careful and literate about how we can save ourselves from those daily traps.
If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.
Marker Pens, Post it notes, A large paper with square boxes to post on the wall where each square can hold one post-it note, A projector, A camera with a volunteer to capture what people are sharing(optional)
