The second badge I wish to discuss is the Genius Hour Badge. We have talked a lot about genius hour over the past few weeks, but getting a chance to experience is something I'll never forget. I will defiantly look into using the concept of genius hour in my classrooms going forward, as I think it is an excellent opportunity for students to express their interests and get some self-motivation. I also really benefited from my own genius project looking into role-playing games in the classroom. This is a topic I might not have researched otherwise, which is a shame because I got a lot out of this activity.
The third but potentially most important badge I have received is the Professional Order of TPACK Badge. This involved coming to class consistently, tweeting regularly, and collaborating in all in-class learning activities. This badge represents my professionalism, collaboration and dependability. As a teacher I think it is a good idea to try and incentivize student punctuality and participation. This badge does a good of keeping students accountable.
