Lastly, as we startedoffering badges, we also surveyed the participating learners for other topics of potential interestto them.Within the department, the implementation of the badges has gone through three distinctphases. In the following we will discuss each distinct phase of our digital badging initiative: (1)Phase I (Fall 2018 and Spring 2019); (2) Phase II (Fall 2019 and Spring 2020); and (3
