Background

This document describes how to use openbadges feature developed by TotaraLMS.

If you would like to give us any feedback, please use this openbadges forum, or email to Yuliya Bozhko.

Using Open Badges Feature

To begin with, there are two categories of badges:

  • Site badges - available to users site-wide and related to the site related activities, like finishing a set of courses.
  • Course badges - available to users enrolled in the course and related to the activities that happen inside of this course.

There are not many differences between these badge types. Depending on a badge type, it is decided what kind of criteria can be attached to a badge and where they can be found in navigation menu.

Badges administration

Site administrators and users with capability "moodle/badges:manageglobalsettings" can set up general settings for badges such as default issuer name, url, contacts, and enable course badges or external backpack connections.
