This week I’ve been:

• Editing the skill descriptors and examples in preparation for the beta launch of the Web Literacy Standard next week
• Writing about the Web Literacy Standard launch (including listing all the competencies and skills)
• Talking to David Ascher and Vinay Gupta about the future of Firecloud (and getting our ‘pitch’ right).
• Helping Wikimedia UK think through how they could use Open Badges.
• Mapping the links between the Web Literacy Standard skills using post-its.
• Trying to get the intermittent fault with the DisplayPort of my MacBook Pro fixed. Unsuccessfully.
• Getting ready to sell our house. More on that soon.
• Sorting out my expenses.
• Giving feedback to Chris Appleton on designs related to the Web Literacy Standard.
• Attending the Webmaker, Open Badges and All-Staff calls.
• Preparing for a work week with my colleagues in Maine, USA that we’re affectionately calling ‘Badge Camp’.
• Planning to update the Mozilla/P2PU School of Webcraft with Vanessa Gennarelli, Chloe Varelidi and Laura Hilliger.
• Updating the Mozilla wiki to ensure a consistent structure for the Web Literacy Standard.

Next week, as I’ve already mentioned, I’ll be in Maine, USA for Badge Camp with my colleagues. I’m planning to travel as little as possible for the rest of the school summer holidays.
