Open Badges Summit in Chicago

07/03/2018 Leave a Comment Written by Ilona Buchem

The upcoming Badge Summit in Chicago focuses on the exploration of micro-credentials, access and equity. The summit is scheduled for June 23, 2018, at Columbia College Chicago.

The summit is organised along five strands:

  • K-12 Implementation
  • Higher Ed and Teacher Professional Development Badging
  • Community and Cultural Organization Badging
  • Workforce Readiness & Industry Badging and Micro-credentials
  • Hot Topics in Badges and Micro-credentials

See more information about the schedule on the summit website:

http://badgesummit.weebly.com/schedule.html

NB: The summit is sponsored by participate, mindSpark and convergence design lab of Columbia College Chicago. One of the sponsors – Participate has recently published a free guidebook on micro-credentials, digital badges and open badges which touches upon the following topics:

  • A brief history of micro-credentials in education
  • How micro-credentials are used to recognize diverse accomplishments in school district settings and beyond
  • Emerging technologies and the future of micro-credentials and digital badges

Great to see new events and publications on Open Badges coming up in 2018!

    Hello,

    for recognition of skills it might be also interesting to look at the ESCO project, which aims at building a unified classification of skills across EU (https://ec.europa.eu/esco/portal/escopedia/European_Skills%252C_Competences%252C_Qualifications_and_Occupations_%2528ESCO%2529). I have discussed this in a bit more detail Johannes Konert in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y4O-gX5hAGvS3shWFRBERe2T4A6w_9DPs7vjB4j43u4/edit#heading=h.gjdgxs

    What do you think about this approach?

    Kind regards,
    Jan

    Um, have I missed the point somewhere ? I realise this is a self-assessment badge but I was surprised that I couldn’t add in some evidence ?
