It’s Aliiiiiiive! (the SoW Badge Pilot, that is)

That’s right, the time has finally come. The School of Webcraft assessment and badge pilot is live!  http://badges.p2pu.org

Learners can now log in (with their P2PU account) and:

Check out all the badges and assessments
There are a number of different types of badges and assessments represented in the pilot. Click around and check them out. (More on the pilot in case you missed it). 

Earn a badge
Submit to an assessment to earn a badge.

Assess submitted work
All the Basic or Foundation level badges are peer assessed. Peers can review the submitted work and vote Yes/No. At the defined threshold of Yes votes, the badge will be issued.

Give their peers community badges
There are a number of peer-to-peer badges that learners can give each other based on experiences in the courses and community. These include Good Teammate, Peer Mentor, Communicator, Innovator and Community Builder.

Give us feedback
Help us learn. Help us scale. Give us feedback on the pilot!

Badge on, friends, badge on.
