Hello
For those interested in how Open Badges might work within an LMS/VLE - take a look at the latest Totara version (a branch of Moodle). They have introduced the functionality: https://www.youtube.com/user/Totaralms/videos
It is good to see something is happening with the building block development. However, I had presumed Blackboard might look to combine Badges and Tin Can in an overhaul of the 'ePortfolio' model from assets to achievements. That kind of model would be really interesting, including in allowing for the expansion of the academic achievement record beyond simply grades or levels.
Best wishes
Ian
