The document discusses using e-badges to recognize faculty and staff development at an educational institution. It provides examples of traditional rewards like degrees, certificates, and continuing education credits. It then introduces e-badges as a new way to acknowledge expertise and learning in specific areas, including learning that occurs outside traditional programs. Implementing an e-badge system would encourage exploration of new topics, identify knowledgeable individuals, foster mentorship, and promote lifelong learning within the institution's community.
During the Spring of 2012, I was a team lead in Students Consulting for Non-Profit Organizations (SCNO) working with a non-profit named Skyline Village Chicago. Along with four analysts, I helped SVC, which creates events and builds community for retirees, in building their general member outreach and board recruitment plan. The final deliverables included board structure and recruitment guidance, continued leadership standards, marketing strategy, and promotional materials.

Rethinking Rewards in the Digital Age - An Introduction to Digital Badges - 9...Jaime Goldman
Florida Library Webinar (FLW) presented on September 17, 2014: Librarians are always searching for new and innovative ways to motivate and engage their target audience. But, what incentives work in today’s digital age? Learn how to use online badges as a new and non-traditional reward for learning and participation at your library. This fun and interactive session will include an introduction to digital badges, as well as a tutorial on how to create and incorporate them into your library instruction and programs.
Toward Student Engagement and Recognition: Developing a Digital Badge Roadmap EDUCAUSE
Higher education institutions are experimenting with the use of digital badges to guide, motivate, document, and validate formal and informal student learning. Digital badging, accompanied with interactive learning designs, provides a digital transcript that highlights a learning narrative that makes competencies, accomplishments, and connections more visible. In this presentation, you’ll learn how digital badging supports learning and motivates students to progress through their courses and programs. The presentation reviews all the components of a badging initiative, but will have participants identify badge components, sketch out their badge constellation, and develop an assessment strategy within the context of a course.

Open badges have the potential to transform education credentials, especially because they can recognize the development of individual competencies that go unmentioned in traditional degrees and transcripts. The Design Principles Documentation Project studied 30 learning initiatives as they implemented digital badges and identified general design principles used by these projects. See some of our findings about badges, case studies in workforce preparation, and questions about implications of badges for workforce development.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. E-Badges 101
Using e-badges to encourage faculty & staff development in
the MCC Leadership Institute Community
Presented by Professor Sandra Rimetz
MCC Leadership Institute Advisory Board
February 13, 2012
2. What is a badge?
• An emblem given as an award, honor or
recognition.
• Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts to honor accomplishments
• Military to display rank
• Classrooms (stickers) to reward completed tasks
• Confirms an achievement, quality, interest or
skill.
3. Today’s Reward System
Traditionally, our educational
accomplishments are
rewarded through:
– Degree attainment (A.A. of
Arts)
– Certificates (Web
Technology)
– Continuing Ed Credits
(C.E.U.)
– Plaques (20 years of service)
4. Tomorrow’s Reward System
• A system of recognition for
those who learn beyond the
traditional paradigm
(degrees, certificates
awarded).
• Acknowledgement of
knowledge or expertise in a
specific area.
• Technology enables us to
easily capture a learning
pathway that may not have
been so obvious.
5. Just imagine…
Faculty and staff
Supporting
joining workshops Promoting lifelong,
participation in

6. Why Use the Badges Model for the
MCC Leadership Institute?
Encourages participants to follow each other.
Validates a track or path of knowledge/expertise.
Helps track topics that a user frequents for further
development (measures interest).
Identifies knowledgeable users/experts’.
Encourages relationships.
Inspires participants to pursue the next level.
Fosters mentorship and community.
Encourages persistence.
Provides an alternate path of education/learning
(rather than traditional coursework).
7. Aligns with the “big” Education Plan
“That's the vision outlined in the National Educational
Technology Plan we at the Department of Education
released last year. Our plan, "Transforming American
Education: Learning Powered by Technology", aims to
reframe learning as a process that is not only lifelong, but
life-wide.”

These are all very specific. If knowledge is obtained beyond any of these areas, it is not evident. What if the person obtaining the Web Technology certificate also is an expert in …
Measuring expertise, not just general knowledge. Think of someone you might go to find an answer to a specific question because you know they can answer it. Tech people deal with this all the time, we aren’t concerned about their degree, we just know that are really good a fixing computers, etc.
And, badges offer an important way to recognize non-traditional ways of learning. They're a way to give credence – and ultimately, credit – for the skills learners and teachers acquire in a broader set of learning environments, and a wider range of content.
Oh yes, and it aligns with Deb and my philosophy as “out of the box” model.
