The end of 2015 is just around the corner, and again we’ve had a fantastic year of the Hive Learning Pop-Up since our launch in 2014<\/a>.\u00a0 Here’s how 2015 went down!<\/p>\n

Since our launch in fall 2014, in partnership with our awesome community partner – the Vancouver Maker Foundation<\/a>, we’ve managed to organize a series of smaller-scale, community-based, quarterly Maker Education Salon<\/a> to sustain engagement and interest with the local Maker Education community.\u00a0 The #MakerEdBC community<\/a> has definitely grown and expanded since the Hive Pop-Up kick off in 2014<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Summer 2015, our wonderful community partner from the Vancouver Public Library<\/a> approached us, asking for the Hive Vancouver team to put together another Hive Learning Pop-Up because of the success from 2014.\u00a0 Though we’re down 1 person with Kat pursuing her PhD in the UK, Dethe & I persisted and managed to rally up local Mozillians and volunteer contributors to put the event together.<\/p>\n

On November 14, a rainy Saturday afternoon, our rock star volunteer contributors & Hive community partners came together at the VPL and we’ve pulled together another year of a successful Hive Learning Pop-Up for 2015<\/a>!\u00a0 Here’s just some of the highlights from this year’s event:<\/p>\n

After a full year of community effort, I can proudly say that we’ve definitely surpassed ourselves from last year.\u00a0\u00a0 To pat ourselves on the back, we’ve managed to double our number of community partners<\/strong> participating in Hive Learning Pop-Up, nailed the #MakerEdBC hashtag<\/a> on Twitter, and gained traction by increasing interest from local communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
