Badgecraft is a platform that allows you to enrich training paths or teaching modules with the use of Open Badges. Open badges are virtual “badges” inspired by those used by the Boy Scouts, which serve to certify and visually represent the skills acquired by an individual. The use of badges stimulates student participation through the so-called Gamification process, meaning the introduction of gaming elements into teaching. With the use of Badges, students can feel more motivated to complete their tasks for various reasons: 1) to collect all the badges related to a topic; 2) to acquire badges that allow access to further levels/learning experiences; 3) to certify their competence on social media and CVs.
