Fiona Harvey's insight:
I constantly refer to this as an example of why portfolios and badges can work together and should. The badge is part of your identity and the portfolio compliments and enhances it.  I am particularly interested in how evidence-based learning contributes to an online profile. NB: I deliberately didn't bother with the 'e' before the portfolio as it feels a bit redundant now.

This report introduces the fundamental principles of the Blockchain focusing on its potential for the education sector. It explains how this technology may both disrupt institutional norms and empower learners.

I spent the end of 2013 drafting Open Badges case studies based on recent interviews with some key use cases.
I know, I know - case studies are long overdue. We’re fixing that really, really soon....
