Hi Randy, Great to have a chance to talk to you earlier this month.  As promised here is the Wave information: - A paper written by Educause Learning Initiative about Wave and its potential for Education to help get you started: http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/ELI7055.pdf - I've enabled your Google Apps domain (ocde.us ) to use Wave, so now anyone who has an account can access Wave at http://wave.google.com/a/ocde.us/ - CCed are a few additional folks from the Google Education team who can answer additional questions you might have about the OCDE using Google Apps and Wave. I hope that's a good start.  After you've had a chance to get started with Wave, let me know and we can set up additional time to talk if that would be useful. Thanks! Greg

Six Ways to Look at Badging Systems Designed for Learning Initiated by Barry Joseph, Global Kids, Inc. Written by Barry with scores of others* Background For over four years, Global Kids has developed badging systems within, after and outside of schools. We are currently designing a badging system for dozens of civic and cultural institutions within the Hive Learning Networks in New York City and Chicago, as well as throughout our organization. We have had a frontline view of the growing interest which has emerged over the past year in the development of badging systems across a wide range of formal and informal learning environments. We have also followed the rise of opposition, and sometimes confusion, about what digital badging looks like or is designed to accomplish. In this context we felt it might be useful to delineate the various interests we see aligning themselves with badges, or make distinctions amongst the different goals people have for them.
