Badges
Badges are digital images that are small, compact, and can be displayed on the Moodle site and also in social media sites, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or their blogs. They are a great way to demonstrate a skill set or competency, and they can motivate students to complete the course or a program in order to obtain the badge.
The Mozilla Open Badges program (at http://openbadges.org/ ) has a free Open Badges Backpack (at https://backpack.openbadges.org/backpack/login ), which allows individuals to store and display their badges.
To work with the badges, the administrator should go to Administration | Site administration | Badges | Badges settings.
To create a new badge, simply click the link and then in the screen complete the details. Note that you can add a photograph to customize the appearance of your badge.
After you click Create badge, you'll see the screen that allows you to further customize the badge. Notice that the graphic that you uploaded appears in the Badge details section...
