As of January 1, 2018, stewardship of Hive Chicago will transition from Mozilla to a new local non-profit, the Chicago Learning Exchange (CLX). Hive Chicago will have a temporary home at the Chicago Community Trust until the transition to CLX is complete. The Hive is still the Hive. Read more here.
Hive Chicago Goals
Hive is a peer learning community for innovation in education.
Our Mission – To create opportunities for teens that advance the promise of the Internet for learning.
Opportunity: The promise of the Internet for education is that learning is connected–it’s interest-driven, peer-to-peer, and relevant.
What we do to seize that opportunity:
- Hive staff provide supports and incentives to drive improvement through innovation.
- Collectively we solve shared challenges through intentional collaboration.
Problems we solve:
- Access to connected learning is not equitably shared among Chicago teens.
- More voices are needed to shape the future of learning.
- The spread, scale and sustainability of innovative models that work requires a networked approach.
Together, members, allies and network leadership reaffirmed our four goals to drive our collective action.
Goal 1: Equitable Access
Enable equitable access to Hive Chicago opportunities by extending the network’s reach beyond the youth we currently serve.
Goal 2: Learning Pathways
Cultivate and illuminate network connections to create learning pathways.
Goal 3: Sustained Innovation
Spark and sustain innovation in learning.
Goal 4: Demonstrated Impact
Demonstrate impact of Hive beyond the Network in support of our goals.
