Open Badge Discovery Day

For experimental purposes, this article was written using generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). The prompt asked for a short text (press release type) on the organization of a day dedicated to Open Badges at UPHF, hosted by Chris and Sandra and bringing together colleagues from UPHF and other universities. The first result was clarified with a new request; corrections and improvements were made to this second version, resulting in the following text:

On November 16, 2023, the Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France organized a training session dedicated to "Open Badges" and open recognition. This initiative, piloted by the university's Direction du Numérique (DNum), was led by experts Sandra Villain and Chris Delepierre from "Badgeons les Hauts-de-France".

The event brought together teachers and administrative and technical staff from UPHF and INSA HdF, as well as a few colleagues from Université de Lille, Université d'Artois, Université Catholique de Lille. These education professionals explored in depth the use and benefits of Open Badges as part of the recognition of academic and professional skills.

The training was distinguished by its interactive approach, blending expert dialogues and a "fishbowl" facilitation method, enabling a dynamic and constructive exchange between participants and speakers. It continued with a hands-on workshop to help participants build their badges.

This initiative aligns with Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France's strategy of promoting innovative and interactive digital teaching methods. Enthusiastic feedback from participating teachers confirms the interest and relevance of these new pedagogical approaches.

This initiative is in line with the Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France's strategy of promoting innovative and interactive digital teaching methods.
