Educators of all shapes and sizes! With the recently identified focus on building a networked community of educators "hacktivated" by both Mozilla's operational approach and Webmaking learning mission, a team is being brought together to engage both individual educators as well as education systems and cohorts.
We seek to hacktivate educators in both formal and informal learning spaces.

We would like to:
- encourage existing educators to identify these stars and provide a single pathway once they've been identified
