Using Open Badges #22
Description
Open Badges (Mozilla) is a well-conceived system to manage badges in learning.
It is easy to set-up and use, and the software support is really good.
It would be nice to think together aboud.t:
. who attributes, issues and serves badges in OSMOOC
- types of badges (levels of achievement?)
- criteria for attribution.
We should agree on this before issuing badges, to avoid the need to classify a posteriori.

Awesome, thanks for this @Pfern. For those three points, I think they can all be sort of addressed in one? So the criteria would be simply completing a module of the MOOC, so there would be ten badges to get in total, and they could be automatically administered once a module is finished. At the moment, certificates are given out for completion for each module. I'm not sure how easy it would be to integrate them into the existing platform though.

We need to be taking the role of "the issuer" and use Mozilla's Open Badges API.
