bring digital badges for your classroom or organziation
DESCRIPTION
Badges, badges, badges. Fun, motivation, excitement. Ok, you get the point. Badges are a time tested (think like for 10,000 ago or more) method to bring out full achievement in students and adults. Everybody loves to receive recognition for things they have done. The communication revolution (thanks Internet) means we can both give and display badges on a grander scale than ever before. Concordia is currently in a beta test stage for using badges with students and we would like to share our experiences so far. This workshop will cover some of the ins and outs of using badges in and outside of the classroom. Specifically: * How it works * Using Mozilla’s Open Badges Program * How to issue badges * How to display badges * Badge use cases * Setting up systems at your school to enable effective badge distributionTRANSCRIPT

■ In June 2013, the Clinton Global Initiative announced a commitment to help 1 million students and 1 million U.S. workers access opportunities through badges. Non-profit organizations, universities, civic organizations, technology providers, employers, and others are teaming up to meet this challenge.■Blackboard’s recent integration with the Mozilla Open
Badges framework enables educators around the world to become badge issuers to millions of students who can use their badge achievements portably in their online identities and resumes.■Mozilla, Blackboard, WCET and Sage Road Solutions are
bringing together academic, governmental, civic, and corporate thought leaders to contribute to a MOOC, “Badges: New Currency for Professional Credentials,” that will foster and strengthen emerging badge ecosystems.
