MADLaT 2016 Open Badges - Making Learning Visible Don Presant
Open Badges are gaining acceptance as eCredentials by educators, professional bodies and employers around the world because they enable better ways to map, recognize and share learning, including informal learning. Quality Open Badges are trustable tokens of skills and achievements that can be shared in e-portfolios, talent pipelines and social media. Open Badges are modular and “stackable”: they can be linked together into flexible development pathways and can support Competency Based Education and learning transfer.
This fast-paced presentation lores global practices in Open Badge systems using living examples and case studies, inside and outside formal education.

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.

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

2. Visual representation of achievement,
experience, affiliation and/or interest - ideally
distinctive and understood within a community.
Some examples:
3. “Badges mean nothing in themselves, but they
mark a certain achievement and they are a link
between the rich and the poor.
For when one girl sees a badge on a sister
Scout’s arm, if that girl has won the same
badge, it at once awakens an interest and
sympathy between them.”
- Juliette G. Low,
Founder of Girl Scouts of the USA
4. Link to criteria and evidence for award
Add security and verification
can check whether a person was actually awarded a
specific badge
Have the credibility of the awarding body
Allow sharing of 'badge clusters' from different
sources with others on Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.
Essentially, an image + embedded information
6. Growing recognition that significant amounts
of learning happens outside the classroom
Grade transcripts hide the truth about
learning
Strong links with current trends such as
MOOCs, Gamification, Mobile Learning
but can be used independently of these
7. Surface the learning 'hidden' in a transcript
Encourage students to undertake co- and extra-
curricular activities
Helps recognise informal learning
Enables students to differentiate themselves
from classmates
The rise of the Informal University?
(MOOCs + Badges) * Awareness = Degree-equivalent?
9. Showing competency in a skill,
e.g. nursing students taking blood samples
Recognising extra-curricular activity
e.g. a music student participating in an orchestra
Representing co-curricular development
e.g. participation in Students' Union activities,
such as chairing society meetings
10. Identifying common themes in a programme
e.g. showing all modules that develop debating skills
Getting businesses and professional bodies
involved
e.g. co-creating badges that meet workplace skills, or
professional attributes
Build toward specialism badges
e.g. students get badges that relate to their learning
journey, by reflecting their optional modules
11. Are there skills that students use and
develop?
Do you have extra-curricular activities to
encourage?
Do you want to draw links between learning
and skills demanded by
employers/professional bodies?
14. For greatest effect:
Make them as professional-looking as possible
Issue cross-module badges
Badges should push students to go beyond the
minimum
Tell businesses/professional bodies about them
Link badges to 'real-world', desirable skills
Each badge must represent a substantial and
meaningful skill or experience
