De la mano de Russ Weakley me entero de la extraordinaria iniciativa de Opera, que no es otra cosa que el Opera Web Standards Curriculum.

¿Qué es el Opera Web Standards Curriculum? Es un excelente recurso didáctico para enseñar a trabajar en el ámbito del desarrollo web de la mano de los estándares.
Opera’s new Web Standards Curriculum is a complete course to teach you standards-based web development, including HTML, CSS, design principles and background theory, and JavaScript basics.
Como iniciativa me parece una magnífica noticia, que permite a Opera, una vez más, apuntarse el primer tanto cuando de evangelizar sobre estándares web se refiere.
Hacen muy bien en dejar claro cuáles son los perfiles de usuario a los que está destinado el Opera Web Standards Curriculum:
- Para profesores
- Para estudiantes
- Para desarrolladores
- Para comerciales
- Para la web (como plataforma)
