 Badge improvements in Moodle 3.7 Moodle 3.7 now offers support for the Badger backpack and competences as criteria for badges. New admin settings have been added to configure the active external backpack for all users so that the admin can add the Badger backpack. Until now, Open Badges 2.0 in Moodle could include options such as language and version, image author details. With Moodle 3.7, it's now also possible to set competences as criteria for badges. As we can see here in our Digital Literacy course where our teacher is setting up a course badge. From the criteria drop down, he can select competences and can then choose one or more course competences and decide how the badge will be awarded. This also works for site badges. Here our student is notified that he was awarded a badge and when he checks it, he can see the related competences. To summarise, Badges in Moodle 3.7 can now connect to the Badger backpack and can be awarded based on competences.
