Badging Informational Pages:
Many pages within a module are informational and just require that you read text, watch a video, and/or listen to an audio recording.
-
You'll know you're on an informational page if you see in the upper right corner a box that says Mark as done. For informational pages, you will need to:
- Read the information, watch the video, or listen to the audio on the page.
- Click Mark as done in the upper right hand corner.
* If an informational page does not have a Mark as done button at the top of it you can simple progress to the next page in the module by clicking Next.
Check your Progress in your Badging course:
When participating in a badging course, you can monitor your progress throughout the course by looking at the modules of the course.
To do this, click on Modules on the left menu in the course. Your progress is tracked on the right hand side. Green check marks indicate that you have completed the activity. Empty circles indicate that you have not yet completed the requirements on that page.
Understanding Badging Assignment Pages:
There are different types of badging assignments you may have to complete. For some assignments you may have to take a screenshot.
