Title | New Website: Open Badges for Foreign Language Education |
Body | From https://openbadges.coerll.utexas.edu/about An Open Badge, as defined by the Mozilla Foundation, is an icon with a short description that provides individuals with a way to present what they know and have learned. Basically, badges are image files that enable anyone to display experiences, achievements, skills and all sorts of other information about one’s interests and abilities in a creative and easy to understand way. CASLS’ sister LRC, the Center for Open Educational Resources and Language Learning (COERLL), has created a new website, Open Badges for Foreign Language Education. The purpose of this website is to provide foreign language educators with the latest information and practices surrounding the open digital badges movement. The website provides descriptions of relevant badging initiatives along with stories from educators currently using digital badges. It also serves as a resource for language educators who want to get started earning or creating digital badges. Visit the website at http://openbadges.coerll.utexas.edu If you are interested in learning more about digital badges, COERLL will be holding a webinar series about them this summer.
