Identify Skills


What achievements are your peers trying to show?

Your Task.

In the comments section below, tell us:

  • Which skills does your badge represent?
  • Which course will offer the badge?
  • What type of badge will it be?

 

Which Skills Are You Assessing?

As an organizers, the badge should directly correspond to the learning goals of your P2PU course. A strong connection between goals and badges makes the assessment relevant. For instance, in HTML Hunting in the World Around You, HTML Basic Badge directly corresponds to learning...well, the basics of HTML. 

While it would be awesome, an "Internet Browsing Monster" badge would not be a relevant badge here, because browsing the web isn't a goal of the course. Make sense? :) 

 

What Is the Badge For?

What event in the learning process does the badge recognize? A few options:  

  • Is the badge for the completion of a project or task? A “Skill” badge is most appropriate. Learners apply for that badge upon completion of a project or task.
  • Is the badge for a trait a learner demonstrates? “Community” badges are what peers award to each other--maybe for giving Helpful Feedback or being a Team Player.
  • Is the badge about user’s activity? “Stealth” badges are earned automatically by usage on the site. For instance, learners get the Beta Hero badge by completing all tasks in a challenge.

    I am thinking about trying out badging by creating badges for attendees of a 1-day prof dev workshop.

    • early bird registration
    • attendee
    • enmasse - multiple attendees from same campus
    • proposer - suggests a session topic
    • facilitator - leads a session
    • loudmouth - hijacks a discussion (peer award; not sure how to set this up for a live 1-day session)
    • tweeter
    • note taker - shares session notes
    • survey’er - completes the workshop evaluation
    • event gold star - earns 4 badges
    • event super star - earns 5 or more badges

    This will be an introduction to badges for our department. We have a staff retreat coming up soon and I will use the learning objectives in this course to develop a badge. I'm not sure if I'll make this a skills badge or challenge badge yet. We are thinking of doing something basic as an introduction to the concept, so not sure how much skill will be involved in this project.

    I am thinking we will start with Skill Badges.  The participants will work closely with a mentor towards a goal and when the goal is reached the mentor will award the badge to the participant.  The badges can be added to a participants public profile which acts similar to a resumen or cv.

    I'd like to start with a very definite skill. I'm keen to get our academic staff onto Yammer to give our teaching and learning community a baseline tool. After that we can coordinate more staff development activities and resources from there.

    • Which skills does your badge represent? Being an active Yammer participant.
    • Which course will offer the badge? It will need to be a new course, not currently active. Yammer all the Way?
    • What type of badge will it be? It is a Skill badge.
