Managing badges in your e-learning courses requires careful maintenance and support. To ensure the quality and security of the badges, you need to follow best practices and standards for issuing and verifying them, such as using the Open Badges specification and framework or a trusted badging platform or service. Additionally, you must protect the badges from fraud, misuse, or expiration, and provide a way to revoke or update them if needed. Further, you should offer support and guidance to your students on how to store, share, and display their badges. This includes helping them understand the benefits of displaying their badges on online platforms or networks, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, or Twitter, or on their portfolios or resumes. You should also provide them with technical and practical information and instructions on how to store, share, and display their badges. Lastly, you must encourage your students to pursue further learning opportunities and credentials. Show them how their badges can be used as evidence of their skills and competencies, and how they can be recognized or transferred by other institutions, organizations, or employers. Additionally, give them resources and links to further learning opportunities and credentials that are related or complementary to their badges.
