[ARCHIVED] Badges

[watsokk]

I just learned how to make a badge in Canva and use Badgr to assign a badge after a module is complete. Where will the students see their badge on their Canvas page? 

How do I show badges I've earned? I have only one, and when I looked in the Canvas Guides, I am not able to follow the step by step directions because there is no jobs icon, notifications icon, and or  me profile icon in my profile settings, like in the example. There is nothing that says add badges anywhere that I can see in my profile. 

Thanks for your help if you know the answer!

Hello @watsokk ...

I don't have a ton of experience with the Badgr app for distributing badges to students, but I believe students would access any of their badges you've created (and that they've earned) by clicking on their "Account" button within Canvas, and then selecting "My Badges" ... at least, that's how it works for me.  Do you have a similar menu in your school's Canvas environment?  Since I assume you are the instructor, I do not believe it is possible to give yourself badges.  I'm not sure if you've already looked at this site, but it might be of help to you:  Checklist for Badging in Canvas Courses .

Please let Community members know if you have other questions about this...thanks!  Take care...be well.

Thank you for your response and the link you shared with me. I didn't realize I had to assign criteria to the module. Once I did that, I can see that badges have been awarded. It's good to know that I can trigger a badge check if they are not showing up! I appreciate your response!

This is really bothering me... Let's say I have three assignments in a module. I want them to view each page in order and I want to give a badge for getting let's say 80% on all work... I can't seem to make the logic work. If I set it to move through in sequential order it makes them get the 8/10 to go to the next assignment. So everyone will get the badge. Also this is not good as if you have an assignment turned in to grade they can't go on until you grade it. I'm I missing something? The other option of doing one of the items seems really not good cause they will skip past all the pages before.
