OERu learner support/Studying courses/Badges



When you have successfully completed a knowledge test on Moodle for an OERu micro-course, you will be awarded a digital badge to recognise your achievement. This is not simply a picture of a badge, but part of a global 'open badging' system which automatically provides a link to verified information about your achievements. This means that wherever you choose to share your badge, for example on your email signature or on social media, your colleagues and contacts can view a description of what you needed to accomplish to earn the badge.

On this page, you will learn how to view and download your digital badge in Moodle, using either your new badge notification or the Moodle Preferences menu. Then go to Sharing your badges to find out how to share your badge with others, using a digital 'backpack'.
