While digital badges are now widely used to recognize learning, they are still not widely value by employers and colleges. This presentation uses data from the 2012-2014 Design Principles Documentation Project to explore why this is and what we might do about it

Where Badges Work Better: Lessons Learned from the DPD Project
- 1. 4th Annual Digital Media and Learning Conference, Los Angeles, June 12, 2015
- 2. The Promise of Digital Badges
- 4. The Problem with Digital Badges
- 5. • Studied 2012 DML content awardees • 600 badge content proposals • 29 content developers supported • 3 platforms supported
- 8. Capturing “Practical Wisdom” • Aristotle’s Phronesis – Contextual and value- laden • Bent Flyvbjerg (2001) – Phronetic narratives • Rich Halverson (2004) – Artifact-based phronetic narratives
- 9. Categories of Badge Functions Recognizing Learning Assessing Learning Motivating Learning Studying Learning
- 10. Evolution of Badge Design Practices Intended practices outlined in original proposals Enacted practices from interviews once project is underway Formal practices after funding ended
- 11. Emergence of Badge Design Principles Draft Initial Principles Formalize General Principles Bookmark Research
- 12. Badges Work Better…. In Some Places than Others Proposed, 16Different, 8 None, 5 Badge System Status Proposed, 11 Different, 11 None, 7 Larger Ecosystem Status
- 13. Badges Work Better…. Where Content and Tech Already Exist Build Less Build More 6 8 2 3 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 Badges Only Badges + Tech Badges + Content Badges + Tech + Content Badge System Status by Starting Point Implemented Partial Suspended Pursuing None
- 14. Badges Work Better…. As Informal Credentials • The most obvious practice to add value were the hardest to implement –1 out of 5 succeeded in awarding formal credit
- 15. Badges Work Better…. When Internally Valued • Projects struggled to gain external value for badges –4 out of 10 secured external endorsements –2 out of 8 secured external value
- 16. Badges Work Better…. When They Offer Unique Information • Redundant badge systems struggled –The badges at 4-H duplicated existing credentials & network
- 17. Badges Work Better…. Where Learning is Social and Networked • Two most robust ecosystems found other ways to add value to their badges –S2R Medals and MOUSE Wins! layered badges into existing content & tech –The learning was already social and networked
- 18. NOW WHAT? 1. Redouble Efforts to Award Formal Credit • Existing credential system co-evolved with admissions and recruiting practices • Badges must contend with invisible networks and tacit relationships
- 19. NOW WHAT? 2. Exploit Unique Features of Badges to Add Value • Get more robust evidence of actual learning and achievement in badges • Allow viewers to “drill down” into public evidence
- 20. NOW WHAT? 3. Align with Other Relevant Developments and Trends • Competency-based learning • Stackable credentials • Credit for prior learning • The OBHE project can help! • @dthickey
Notes de l'éditeur
- This is my team I did my PhD in psychology at Vanderbilt and have spent most of my career doing assessment and evaluation with cutting edge educational technology. Jasper Woodbury videodisks at Vanderbilt, GenScope Multimedia software as a postdoc at the ETS center for performance assessment and on the faculty at Georgia, NASA Classroom of the Future as a faculty member in Georgia, and Quest Atlantis, Sakai, and Project NML at Indiana. So of course I am thrilled to be working with what I think will be the most important technology of all. I also study motivation and incentives, and have thought about badges a lot. I have done empirical studies of them in both Quest Atlantis and Sakai and hope to have them published soon. I focus on the implications of sociocultural theories of knowing and learning for assessment, motivation, research, and evaluation. There is a research literature in each area that is directly relevant to the goals of the DML initiaive This is my team, Happy to be working with Shery Grant and others at HASTAC—you are in the hands of a very capable team there and we have had lots of discussion about how we can help serve both the initiative and individual projects Also thrilled to be working with Mozilla. Erin Knight has been awesome. As I will show you Carla Casilli is introducing some very important ideas, and I understand that Peter Rawsthorne form England is joining the team as well. Technically most of my work will be through HASTAC and focused on awardees. But there is an enourmous community of finalists out there who have been inspired by the compeition and are forging ahead as we speak.
