 New badge features in Moodle 3.6 Moodle 3.6 now supports version 2.0 of the open badges specification, offering more options when adding badges to your course or site. Versions, language and image author details may be included, along with a link to competences, endorsements and related badges. Here, our course teacher is adding a new badge. Version can help you keep track of the history of the badge and with language you can identify the language a badge is in and have different language versions of a badge. Information about who authored the image may also be added. And once our teacher has created the badge, we see three new tabs, endorsement, related badges and competences. Endorsement is useful if, for instance, there is an accreditation organisation who will endorse the criteria for awarding this badge. Related badges can be selected here from existing badges. These might be different versions or languages or, as in our teacher's case, they might be badges on a similar theme or topic to this one, which the badge earner might wish to aim for. From the competences tab, you can align the badge with an official standard. And note that at present these do not link with Moodle's existing competences feature. When our teacher sets the criteria and enables the badge, it can be awarded to students. And here we see our student who has recently gained this new badge and we can clearly see the extra information it provides. To summarise. Now supporting version 2.0 of the open badges specification, Moodle 3.6 offers more options when creating badges.
