TRANSCRIPT
DIGITAL BADGE DEFINITION
• “Digital credential that represents skills, interests and achievements earned by an individual through specific projects, programmes, courses or other activities.” (Mozilla, 2013)
WHO IS USING DIGITAL BADGES?
• Khan Academy
• Deloitte
• Gamification
• Do not talk to each other.
• Not transferable
MOZILLA’S OPEN BADGES
“Learning today happens everywhere. But it's often difficult to get recognition for skills and achievements that happen online or out of school. Mozilla Open Badges helps solve that problem, making it easy for any organisation to issue, manage and display digital badges across the web.”

BADGE SYSTEM DESIGN
PROCESSES
• Curriculum is not a large fixed entity
• Offerings would become more flexible – and therefore admissions/enrolments
• Pathways would be more flexible
• Personalized learning pathways the norm
• Curriculum review quicker and more responsive
DESIGN
• Assessment design becomes explicit
• Designing for lifelong learning becomes easier (ongoing PD)
• Learning experience separated from assessment
• Design for feedback, support and tracking
PEOPLE
• Faculty • Learners• Academic Development staff / eLearning support• Library• Industry Stakeholders
• Ownership changes• More team based• Act like a community to “tend” the badge system
PRODUCTS
(warning: entirely my dream world)
• Curriculum documents > badge systems
• Course sites & resources > badge learning experience sites
• LMS > badgekit, badge navigator?
• Timetable/Academic calendar > flexible and ongoing
CONCLUSION
Extremely challenging to achieve in existing structures and cultures
More likely to succeed in
• new platforms (Skillshare, Treehouse),
• new ventures (Swinburne Online, Chisholm Online, Deakin Digital, )
• or new communities or industries
