We provided a proposal template in the form of a Google Doc and asked that each student submit their idea and plan to their teacher. As the proposals star rolling in, we are giving students feedback by leaving a comment on their document and suggesting changes or tweaks where necessary.

  These are science-based ideas, but students could make LA connections as well. (i.e. Is it true that the only theme in all of literature is "Who am I?"; Yahweh means "I AM" - how does that impact our understanding of human identity?). Any topic will be applicable to LA and technology skills: research, writing, collaborating, sharing, presenting, etc.

They would be given roughly 1 hour during the week to work towards their projects. I also made this sweet banner as our Genius Hour poster, and explained that photoshop was something that no-body taught me, because I was never given the opportunity to learn it. But I decided to find out if I could teach myself. The result is that I now have a basic knowledge of photoshop! This was the idea that we communicated to them about Genius Hour, that they were to be the ones to decide what to learn, how to do it, and then what to do with it.

A rich example of how badge learning can be implemented to support authentic, project-based, student-interest driven learning. This is a program at UC Davis.
