→The On-boarding Process
| Line 101: | Line 101: | ||
The Hive on-boarding process is based on a 3 tiered model; '''contact''', '''connect''', '''create'''. In the Contact phase, new city teams will connect with the Hive Global team to begin the on-boarding process and receive integral information and resources. In the Connect phase, new cities are invited to join the Hive Global Community Call which is held each month throughout the year. The call is a great opportunity to connect with the Hive Global team and other new cities also being on-boarded and hear about successes from the network. The Create phase is when you take all of the information you learned in the first two phases and create your first Hive Learning Community experience in your city! | The Hive on-boarding process is based on a 3 tiered model; '''contact''', '''connect''', '''create'''.

* The first step is connecting with the Hive Learning Networks Project Manager. In this initial conversation, we will discuss Hive and how best it could fit into your community. Our Hive Learning Networks Project Manager will also discuss the Hive Interest Form which each on-boarded community to think about important components to the successful implementation of the Hive model. | |||
The materials that you will receive include: | |||

==== '''Connect:''' ==== | |||
The next step in your on-boarding process is attending the Hive Global community call. These calls are held once a month and are a great opportunity to connect with other cities from around the world who are also in the process of bringing Hive to their hometowns. Each call is comprised of updates from the Hive Global team and an update from a new city on their process of getting community support, working with potential members and other relevant topics. An exciting element of the call is hearing from a member on why they have chosen to be a part of the collaborative Hive community in their city. It is a great opportunity to raise any questions, issues or concerns you or your team may have in your work to bring the Hive to your city. | |||
On our first call held on December 12, 2014 we had 20 participants from locations such as Wellington, New Zealand, Bodun, Nigeria, London, England and Portland, USA to name a few. | |||
Each call is hosted via a dial in number and participants are given access to a live etherpad where notes, questions and answers are added in real time. | |||

==== '''Create:''' ==== | |||
Creating a learning experience in your city is a great opportunity to take the learning from the initial phases and do something to truly build and launch the Hive Learning Community in your community. Get educators, potential stakeholders, and young people together to start exploring the benefits of a local Hive. | |||
When creating your learning experience or "event", there is no wrong answer. Events are a great way to spread the #hivebuzz. #Hivebuzz is a Twitter hashtag that Hives around the globe use to get communities talking about events in their city. Events and meet-ups are a great way to bring together your biggest supporters in one space to discuss next steps, pathways of on-boarding new members and youth and what type of programming would best benefit the community. | |||
'''A few things to consider are:''' | |||
* Who will be attending your event, will it be youth-facing, adult participants or a mixture of both? | |||
* Do you have a space allocated for the event? Many times, libraries, museums or community centers are great examples of venues for premier events? | |||
* Will it be an daytime or evening event? | |||
* How are you reaching your audience and inviting them to your event? | |||
The most important question that must be answered is what type of event will you be hosting. Here are a few types of events that other Hives have found successful: | |||
'''Hive Pop Up Event''' | |||
<br /> | |||
A pop-up event involves the participation of community organizations that are brought together in a science fair setting with groups exhibiting at different stations with hands-on activities. Attendees are encouraged to get making with exciting and new types of technology; web, digital and hands-on. | |||

'''Community Meeting:'''<br /> | |||
A community meeting is an opportunity for local stakeholders such as educators, makers, community organizations etc to come together to discuss how the Hive can be implemented to ensure maximum impact in the community. You are encouraged to discuss what are your current assets for successful, what are the major goals and the vision for the Hive and what opportunities can be utilized to ensure these goals are met. | |||
<br /> | |||
Many Hives have used the community meeting event model to discuss potential funding steams, opportunities to best start seeding collaborations in the communities or meet on a routine basis to discuss what are the current updates in relation to the work of bringing the Hive to your city<br /> | |||
