The badges are a form of digital certification to enable our community to evidence their ongoing commitment to the field of Computer Assisted Language Learning and their active participation in professional development. The badge can be displayed on your website, social media channels or through your eportfolio and it is verifiable by others who see it. Many of you will now have several badges from EuroCALL as we started issuing in 2019.
Get active with your badges!
This year we will also encourage you to enhance your badge by adding evidence of the nature of your activity to your badge once you have added it to your personal Open Badge Passport account. This is easy to do and adds value to your badge.
Simply follow these steps:
- Look out for the email confirming the award of your badge and click on the link to accept your badge. Here's a reminder tutorial for this process.
- If you already have the Open Badge Passport app on your phone you can just accept the badge through the app.
- Make your badge public by adjusting the settings, by default it is private. This step is shown in the tutorial above.
- Now go to the settings tab on your badge and click Add new evidence.
You will now be able to add the URL of your presentation, recording or slides if you were a presenter. There are many easy ways to add your content to your badge:
The more you evidence your skills, the more compelling your badge becomes to others. Taking these steps could be helpful in building your professional presence online. Using the tools provided in your free Open Badge Passport you will make new connections and find tools for easy webpage creation. Make the most of your Open Badge today!
We look forward to celebrating your membership of EuroCALL online. Share using the #eurocall tag so that we can congratulate you.
