Open Badges are images with metadata hard-coded into them

Page 13: Mozilla, Open Badges, and a Learning Standard for Web Literacy

Visual representations ofachievements, learning, skills,

interests, competencies

They can accommodateformal & informallearning pathways

Open Badges?(What about degrees, certificates, diplomas?)

Page 27: Mozilla, Open Badges, and a Learning Standard for Web Literacy

Not simply either/or—both/and!

I love badges for motivating me in

my learning!

We use metadata-infused credentials

aligned with the OBI

I’m using micro-accreditation to

make achievements more granular

3 main ways to issue badges...

Page 34: Mozilla, Open Badges, and a Learning Standard for Web Literacy

Roll your own solution(using onboarding documentation)

Use plugin for an existing system (plugins available for most major platforms/systems)

Third-party issuing platform(URLs in metadata point to their servers)

Conclusion

• Open Badges = metadata-infused credentials

• We’re now at v1.0 of the OBI

Page 41: Mozilla, Open Badges, and a Learning Standard for Web Literacy

SOME IDEASto get you started

• Play! Experiment! Earn your first badge at openbadges.org to see how they work.

• Think up some criteria and issue a badge to someone using badg.us

• Join the Open Badges community. Ask questions!

• Launch a pilot. What behaviours/skills/understanding are you trying to promote?
