@oceane There's huge amounts of scope, especially since v3 of the #OpenBadges spec now aligns with the #VerifiableCredentials data model.

I've got an unfinished idea around social verifiable credentials here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1PYqli7lBCi6h87dOI57uhTeaJeGuX0Scf0Bx1wCrDlY/edit#slide=id.geb248494fe_0_0

I also published a post on endorsements this morning, which could definitely have a $$$ angle https://dougbelshaw.com/blog/2023/09/08/the-role-of-endorsement-in-open-badges-and-open-recognition/

I decided to do a bit more research and write up some more thoughts on #endorsement and how it works with #OpenBadges and #OpenRecognition

Hello! We need more supporters for @weareopencoop podcast, free email courses, badge wiki, etc. Big love to those we have though! #openbadges #OER https://opencollective.com/weareopen

I saw an old email subject line saying that I still hadn't planted my #Hacktoberfest tree and had an idea for (an) alternative(s):

- receive #OpenBadges instead of tshirt or tree and weird badges
- join any time, no deadline
- run by people not wanting to lure you to their platform
- get badges for useful 'quests', not just x pull requests
- opt-in, works with any code forge
- repo maintainers need not know about each quest's specifics

I woke up with an idea for a blog post this morning and sat down to write it. However, it grew legs and ran away with me and I ended up writing about...

Badges numeriques, l’autre nom pour les #openbadges ? https://eductive.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/cahier-decouverte-sur-les-badges-numeriques-2023-05.pdf

@teufel100 So im #openbadges Kontext? Und wieso nicht präsentierbar?

"What is Open Recognition, anyway?"

The ‘value’ of a degree

#ThoughtShrapnel #jobs #economy #academia #OpenBadges

A une époque où chefs d’#entreprise, #recruteurs sont friands de #compétences qui sortent des sentiers battus, de celles que l’on n’acquiert pas sur les bancs de l’école ni de l’université, les #openbadges tracent une autoroute à 6 voies, digne d’une « highway californienne », dans l’univers corseté des diplômes et certifications.

Onderzoekend naar #openbadges, maar dat lijkt telkens meer 'closed badges' te worden, en dat lijkt me eeuwig zonde. Iemand ervaring? Tips? Verwijzingen?

Hi @dajb

Just a heads-up. This was posted to #SocialHub: An announcement to federate #OpenBadges in the @communecter project. I made mention of your expertise on the subject.
