This is how it works

Earner chooses to put it in their backpack
Collections of badges can be shared to unlock new opportunities and possibilities.
Some recent badges created with DigitalMe
Interoperable
March 2015: • 14,000 issuers worldwide • ~2 million badges issued • 342,300 badges sent to backpacks • 88,585 backpacks
How do you quantify value?
Motivation 92% pupils reported that they were happy they had received a
badge for their work
82% report that they would like to find out about other badges
that they could get.
Progression
120 badge partners
