Editor's Notes
- Badges … Visual representations of achievements, learning, skills, competencies
- Symbols have meaning. They are images that give us information through imagery. For instance: This symbol could be Electrical hazards or Zeus Warning
- Push button to dry hands or push button to get bacon
- Wear your seatbelt or (ask audience for possible response)
- Engine needs oil or Engine needs gravy
- In education, symbols are used to represent what people learn and master. They can be certificates or degrees to show mastery of specific disciplines They can be awards or exclusive memberships in organizations The meaning is implied – the symbols themselves don’t necessarily mean anything
- They have become a tool….where we apply them and have given them meaning that they represent an assessment of performance
- The forms that are represented on the transcript is a capture in time,….the learning is evolving What was once a course, represented by a credit, or a Carnegie Unit is evolving…Learning can happen in a lot of different places, MOOCs, Online learning, employer training, for-profit training, OSHA, apprenticeships ….
- Digital badges have become a way to symbolize learning that happens outside of traditional institutions for learning such as CCCS. They are visual representations and can mean whatever the issuer wants them to mean. This can be a problem for the receiver of the badge who tries to use them as evidence of learning because and employer or other organization will not necessarily know if the badge means anything more than the image. Problem of “carpet badging” vs truly documenting mastery of skills
- Rather than have implicit meaning, digital badges have EXPLICIT meaning If you are uncertain of the value of the badge you can find out the: Criteria Context AND the evidence of learning that has occurred So anyone who looks at that badge has the same information.
- Standards are emerging to make badges more relevant for the receiver of the badge and the employer who wants to know what specific skills a prospective employee has
- Demonstrating mastery can be shown through Assessments Portfolio of work Certifications Field work
- Questions on the background of badges?
- Dr. Nagitichi…nobel prize winner in organic chemistry
- Recognized on a transcript like….. So enters into the value of the badge…. It is important on who issues it…. The nuance of who issues it and the value around the issuer
- Badge should be like an iceberg. The surface is what people see, but that surface should represent depth and substance underneath.
- Badges give students a new path to create paths to learning….capturing sub-course level learning by pursuing outcomes through different paths
- Badges can be versatile, allowing learners to create their own certificates/degrees Can even be threatening to traditional institutions since engaged learners to pick and choose not only what they learn, but where they learn it.
- Evidence criteria, WHO issued it Motivation? Value is an extrinsic motivator Badges are goals
- Digital representation of some aspect in the course
- Badges can be used to show mastery of competencies beyond completion of specific course competencies.
- Badges can be used to show competencies in traditional co-curricular organizations
- Not associated with a particular course
- Don’t need to upend the educational process or institutions to apply badges, we can make badges work in existing learning environments by capturing assessments in different ways
- Badges creates a series of credentials related to learning outcomes which are unique to the holder of the badge Value is the ability to stand out in a crowd
- Examples of badges based on master of skills Certifications - New York City Department of Education Validation – Educause validating completion of IT trainings Commemorate – Smithsonian badges unique programs/activities
- Institutions and companies using Badges Purdue University Penn State University of Indiana Colorado State University-Fort Collins University of Denver Deloitte City of New York City of Chicago ACE and the US Military Samsung LearnDash Extreme Networks LinkedIn Khan Academy
- Challenges to badges. No official institution to certify badges are legitimate
- What does it mean to have an institutional badge? We know about transcripts, diplomas, certificates Branded—do you include or not include the institution’s official badge FERPA—how do you do badges and protect privacy? Only share the elements a student wants
- Two processes for developing and using badges Issuing badges Who is the audience? Accepting badges What do they represent?
- Badging initiative part of CHAMP TAACCCT Grant Focus on issuing badge to represent learning outside of our typical course work Math MOOC based on MAT108 competencies
- Aligned badges to the competencies in CCNS. Started with clusters based on industry needs – reviewed literature and studies showing what specific skill-sets industry looked for and how they were tied to what workers actually needed on the job
- Rather than have implicit meaning, digital badges have EXPLICIT meaning If you are uncertain of the value of the badge you can find out the: Criteria Context AND the evidence of learning that has occurred So anyone who looks at that badge has the same information.
- Backed by Evidence and credentials Criteria Evidence Assessment Standards Issuer
