Hive ���Next
A vision and strategy for the Hive Global Learning Network
Draft - February 2014
section 1
big picture
What is a Hive?
A local network of educators advancing connected learning, ���
web literacy and digital skills.
What is Global Hive?
A global constellation of city-based Hives that share ideas, tools and a common vision. Global Hive is a key part of Mozilla’s Webmaker initiative.
What is Hive’s goal?
We aim to build ���connected learning and web
literacy into society in a manner that is both deeply local and
massively global.
Why connected learning?
The way we think about learning needs to reflect the reality and the opportunities of the internet era — young people need to be positioned for success in our ever-changing world.
Why web literacy?
Understanding the mechanics, culture and citizenship of the web is
critical to learning in a connected world.
Helping young people become citizens of the web is about equity
and justice.
section 2
local hives
What does local success look like?
Short term: new curriculum, content and software made by
educators.
Long term: connected learning and web literacy deeply integrated into
schools and youth programs.
section 4
a global hive
Why a Global Hive?
Interest is building and we need a Global Hive to help people
start Hives in new cities and to ���spread innovation from existing
Hives.
How can we meet this need?
Establish a Global Hive program within Mozilla that will create materials, offer badges, run events, provide a web platform and collect metrics that support the work of local Hive leaders.
What is Mozilla’s role?
Mozilla will house, operate and ���co-fund Global Hive as a part of it’s Webmaker initiative.
Primary role: support Hive action teams and the stewardship group.
What is MacArthur’s role?
As the catalyst behind Hive, MacArthur continues to support local
Hives as part of its connected learning strategy
. MacArthur remains a partner and will co-fund and steward the Global Hive as it grows.
What about other stewards?
Orgs like Sprout Fund and National Writing Project house local Hives.
Also, local Hives include dozens of orgs as members -- the members are the heart of Hive.
