Solar Power Up: Great example of how badges lead to tinkering, as well as how it's all about making and creating. Video shared by Connie Yowell of the MacArthur Foundation at the Open Badges Summit 2014.
From Peter Elbow, researcher and expert on teaching writing -- I participated in a rich discussion today on a Mozilla Community Call around assessment, badges and this article as a jumping off place. What resonates with you here? What can be learned from Elbow's ideas for badge learning?
Mozilla re-booted proficiency-based credentialing. A badge is not a static piece of paper but a dynamic credential that tells the story of the leaner and their competencies. It's not about seat time, but about skills and knowledge.
