Workshops
In our ongoing effort to improve professional development, Electronic Learning uses a micro-credentialing system in which badges are issued for attending live workshops through Electronic Learning as well as completion of assignments associated with some workshops.
Badges
To earn a badge for professional development, attend a professional development workshop offered through Electronic Learning. Some workshops will require the completion of an assignment before the badge is awarded. For example, after a faculty member attends the Rubrics workshop, they will be required to submit a rubric for evaluation. After the rubric passes evaluation, the badge for the Rubrics Workshop will be awarded. The badge will then be sent to the faculty’s NSU email address. To accept the badge, click through the email and create an account on the platform. The badge will be added to your library and can be shared to multiple social sites and portfolios. Learn more by reading this resource on Sharing your badges from Canvas Badges.
