Badging is a visual way to demonstrate learning. Join us as we discuss and explore the use of badges or micro-credentials in the classroom. The New York Times describes digital badges as "portals that lead to large amounts of information about what their bearers know and can do. They are also being used to improve education itself, by borrowing techniques from video games that keep users playing, until they advance to the next level." We will explore different ways that teachers around the world are implementing badging in the classroom. Educator skill: Learner & Collaborator. Product featured: GAFE, various badging platforms.
