I have been trying to catch up since I started this E-learning 3.0 MOOC (I started doing week 4, Identity, when the course was almost in week 5 !!), and finally I think I´ve done it!
Week 6: Recognition – Task: Create a Badge
The instructions for this task were:
Create a free account on a Badge service, and then:
- create a badge
- award it to yourself.
- use a blog post on your blog as the ‘evidence’ for awarding yourself the badge
- place the badge on the blog post.
To accomplish this task, I chose Badgr.
I created an account, with google . Before creating it as an Issuer, I verified my email address. I used the name of my Blog, Learning Reflections, as the issuer. And chose a beautiful peacock picture as the logo 😊.
To create a badge, I chose the Badge Class option.
I uploaded a picture, a country side photoshoped image, and the description. And then, I awarded it to myself.
Here is a screen shot of my email account…
Then, I downloaded it.
And that was the end of my task.
