The Meaning of Recognition

I think in the early days of thinking about open credentialing, I got fixated on the credential part. The proof you might receive from an authoritative body, qualified to judge, rather than a human nod or tip-of-the-hat from someone in my community. Recognition – we all need it.

By the way, it’s a long time since I’ve woven a friendship bracelet. (Is it still a thing amongst the youth of today?)

This illustration was created for a series of credentialing workshops with Badge guru Doug Belshaw for the N-TUTORR project.
