Gah! Badges??!
*ocd tendencies triggered*
How do I find the list of badges again? I stumble on them once, now cannot find the correct link...Thank you
You can click on your portrait in the top right corner and select Profile to see what badges you have, personally. Or you can click on anyone's name to see their public profile, including badges:
The full list of badges is under the site menu between Spaces and your portrait:
No badge for lurking? :(
You know, it's a brilliant idea! It's even possible technologically. We could invite people to go to a page that gives them a cookie to capture their lurking behaviors...
Hascoorats, as a gamer and a friend of gamers, I appreciate this problem! I remember going for Loremaster and World Explorer in WoW... So, here are the design steps Yelena and I took to make our badges healthy, and mild on completionists.
- There is no competition, no exclusivity: every badge is for everyone who does its tasks.
- You choose how, and how much, to respond to a task to get the main, daily badges.
- There are five tasks in a week, but responding to any two (for all four weeks) already gets you the course completion badge. You can choose to do more, and I love all the tasks, of course.
- You can find badges on your profile, but they are not prominent as you go around the course.
Since this course is open, each course participant can design their own gamification, if any. The purpose is task and time management, which everyone does differently.
Like you I am excited to earn fun badges...I am a little curious about obtaining the critic badge even. I am developing my computer skills, all I can do is my best and sleep on the rest. A good nights sleep and time to explore new tabs will help me grow in my teaching. Thank you for having me!
