Hawaii was formed by a hot spot. A hot spot is a region in the Earth's mantle where magma rises to the surface, creating volcanic activity. As the tectonic plate moves over the hot spot, a chain of volcanoes (like the Hawaiian Islands) is formed. Convergent boundaries involve plate collisions, tectonic plates are the larger structures, and "it just appeared out of nowhere" is not a scientific explanation.
