Earning recognition\u00a0can be\u00a0a powerful motivator, and the Achievements tool in Interact2 provides opportunities for faculty to recognise student accomplishment throughout\u00a0their courses\/subjects.\u00a0With Achievements,\u00a0faculty can use certificates and open badges<\/a> to motivate students to excel and to provide a map of their learning that is more\u00a0detailed than\u00a0a grade. Plus, these certificates and open badges can\u00a0go with students when they leave the university, helping them to communicate their professional identity and reputation\u00a0to help\u00a0open job and education opportunities.<\/p>\n

Faculty can designate criteria for issuing badges and certificates for course completion or milestones, and then view who has earned each badge. Badges can be awarded for any notable course accomplishment, such as mastering a skill, completing a project, or\u00a0demonstrating collaboration or leadership.<\/p>\n

Students can see which rewards they’ve earned and what is required of them to receive additional rewards, providing insight into learning progression toward defined competencies. Students are also able to publish badges to the Mozilla Open Badge Backpack<\/a> to\u00a0maintain evidence of their learning outside the LMS.<\/p>\n
