Dennis Viehland

The task enabled me to put in writing some of my views on future development possibilities for badges. Prior to beginning this task I read quite a bit about badges, formed some of my own views and shared with others. I feel I am a badge definer, so I deserve this badge.

  Comment:

  Dennis gave a good overview of the history and current state of the use of badges, mainly based on a series of helpful links. However, there is no clear self-made definition of what a badge is on the website (by the way link is broken because it misses the "L" at the end should be http://www.massey.ac.nz/~dviehlan/Resources-for-MOOCs-and-Badges.html  )
