--- Reply ABOVE THIS LINE to post a comment to the project --- Company: OWEA Project: Open Web Education Alliance Link: https://webstandardsproject.grouphub.com/C45195162 Glenda Sims commented on a message: Dave, You are spot on about us needing to refine our goal. OWEA doesn't create the Web Science Degree Field...Faculty and their institutions do. We are refining the OWEA White Paper conclusion to more accurately reflect that. I think this was always the intent...it just wasn't clearly stated. As for the web career pathways piece...I would say that is a crucial piece to the relevance of the curriculum. It may not be the same folks that work on the curriculum that help clarify web career paths. And I don't expect the pathways to be so detailed that they are at the job description/job posting level. But like the InterAct curriculum is a framework...I believe we need to establish a web career pathway that maps to the reality of what industry needs and the curriculum teaches. One of the forces that inspired InterAct is faculty wanting to share (or needing access to this kind of material). Another major force is the web industry begging for well qualified applicants coming out of our educational institutions. Thanks for your awesome insights and questions. You really help us focus our message and energy. ..........................................................................
