For fun, a self-issued badge coming out of an **excellent** edition of The Badge Summit @ CU Boulder, issued by me to me, from a free badge portfolio account on Open Badge Passport, by Open Badge Factory. It's a learning capsule, containing embedded evidence from the event, which will include the video recording when it's available (Aug 20?). In the meantime it does have the link to the Sched listing. So, badge as professional development *story*, rather than just a certificate or sticker. Does anyone one else want a peer-issued version of this badge for a presentation you made? You need a free account of your own on openbadgepassport.com before I can issue it to you. Reach out if you're interested! No need to provide specific evidence ahead, the link to the schedule is embedded and you can embellish later. Because #openbadges #digitalbadges can be so much more than #microcredentials
