20. Questions to debate

• How to connect the Digital Badges with the aim of
the project?
• We need to establish a solid scale of requirements,
topics of the Digital Badges.

22. Technical details
• Definition of the contents of each badge and its associated metadata:
http://ciudad-escuela.org/openbadges/badge-archivo-urbano.json
• System users with Mozilla Persona connection, database assertions
(badge issued for each user).
• Badge system demand by the user: form, connection to Mozilla Backpack
user and system cooked Mozilla badges.
• System to check the evidence associated with a request for badge.
Perhaps it associated space to house evidence.
• System issuing badges.
• Integration with CMS or framework in which the OB integrates
infrastructure.
