Why Digital Badges?  S-A-M-M

• Shareable – digital badges are easy to share across your social networks or as resume worthy credentials
• Addictive – like potato chips, you can’t eat just one!  Once you’ve earned your first badge, you’ll want to earn others.  Not convinced?  Check out our Badges Leaderboard below!
• Motivational – only 5% of online courses actually get completed.  Why such a low completion rate?  Because all learning requires patience and endurance during the difficult parts of the course.  With a digital badge as the prize for completing the course, the learner pushes through the hard parts to completion at a much higher rate!
• Memorable – once you’ve earned your badges they are stored in your digital badge transcript.  They stay with you regardless of who your current employer is.  As an example, here are my badges: YourAcclaim, Salesforce.

What are Digital Badges?

I have earned 21 digital badges. They have served me well in my current endeavors of building the Upskill Create Community.  They have helped establish my expertise in this area as well as give me a broad general knowledge of new technologies and skills. They indicate that you have acquired a skill that can be verified online. 

Digital Badges are usually visually represented in the form of a graphical image that resembles a physical badge like this:

I help others in our community earn badges, learn, share resources and connect with others.

My first two badges were IBM Cloud Essentials and Blockchain Essentials. Both courses are 3 hours long. All of the courses in this blog post are available for anyone to take and are 100% FREE.

The courses were enjoyable with good videos and learn-by-doing exercises. The exercises were easy to follow along with and helped fill in the gaps of my knowledge of Bluemix and Blockchain. Most of the videos are hosted on Youtube. Here’s an example from the Bluemix Essentials Course (if you can’t see the video below, click HERE):

Course Design

Each course was broken up into modules and activities in collapsible sections. I was able to take the course in chunks as my schedule allowed and I was informed of my progress at the bottom of each module (e.g. “completed 7 out of 33 modules”). At the end of each module, I was given a knowledge checkpoint question. At the end of the course, I had to correctly answer 80% of the 10 quiz questions to collect my badge. If I got less than 80%, I was able to re-take the quiz as many times as I wanted to get 80% or better.

Here’s an example of the expandable modules from the Bluemix Essentials course:

Course Requirements: As an example, here are the details for what is required to earn the Blockchain Essentials Badge:

1. Coursework: Successful completion of the Blockchain Essentials course.
2. Demonstration: Successful completion of the associated practical lab demonstrating the ability to create a working chaincode and deploy it to a blockchain network.
3. Assessment: Completion of the end-of-course test and received a score of 80% or higher.

Convenient: I wake up early on most weekend mornings and while the rest of my family is asleep, I thought I could use this time to make a small investment in my career by learning every weekend. Most courses average about 5 hours each so this is easy to complete.

Addictive: As a fan of the highly addictive collection game called Pokemon Go during the summer of 2016 (slogan – “Gotta Catch ’em All!”), I found myself feeling a similar addictive desire to get more IBM badges!
