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.

Microcredentialing: Recognizing Student Learning with Digital BadgesStephanie Richter
A college degree is important, but it provides an incomplete picture of a graduate’s knowledge, skills, and experiences. Microcredentialing (awarding recognition for small, granular achievements) may help! By collecting and displaying digital badges online, students can combine evidence from all of their learning activities (including classroom, co-curricular, and outside learning) to promote themselves more effectively. In this session, which was presented at the 2015 SLATE Conference, we discussed what badges are and how to create and award them to your students.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

• “Badges can help engage students in learning, and
broaden the avenues for learners of all ages to
acquire and demonstrate – as well as document
and display – their skills,” Education Secretary
Arne Duncan said in 2011.
• Duncan also linked badging to competency-based
education, saying it “can help speed the shift from
credentials that simply measure seat time, to ones
that more accurately measure competency.”

Editor's Notes
Badges … Visual representations of achievements, learning, skills, competencies
For a quick overview of what we presented last time, we start with the idea of symbols.
Symbols are important in education and the workplace
Designate mastery of topics/disciplines
Designate master of specific skills.
US Department of Education Viewpoint
“Badges can help engage students in learning, and broaden the avenues for learners of all ages to acquire and demonstrate – as well as document and display – their skills,” Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in 2011.
Duncan also linked badging to competency-based education, saying it “can help speed the shift from credentials that simply measure seat time, to ones that more accurately measure competency.”
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
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
Two archetypes of Badges: Participation Badges and Skill Badges
Both have value, but Skill badges have more transferable value
Evidence
criteria, WHO issued it
Motivation?
Value is an extrinsic motivator
Badges are goals
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
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
Institutions and companies using Badges

Badge should be like an iceberg. The surface is what people see, but that surface should represent depth and substance underneath.
One advantage to badges over a traditional college transcript or degree is that rather than having just 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
Two processes for developing and using badges
Issuing badges
Who is the audience?
Accepting badges
What do they represent?
Clicking on the digital badge brings up this type of Meta Data display.
Contains information on:
Badge Name
URL
Description
URL to Criteria for earning badge
Date issued
The criteria like takes you to what the assessment and/or criteria used to by the issuer of the badge to determine how someone earns the badge
Quick way for a college (SME) to assess crosswalk for PLA
Quick way for employer determine if badge represents needed skill
Clicking on the URL from the Meta Data page takes you to a page displaying all of the badges offered by the issuer
CCCS will have a similar page with the URL: badges.cccs.edu
Badges help anyone standout from a crowd.
