During various conversations I've had with @dajb around our open credentialing workshop, and @cogdog in relation to open education, there came a little creative idea to remix moments of informal recognition between one another.

That's how the remixable Hat Tip was born. It's purpose built to uplift a human's appreciation for another human. Something I believe is incredibly important.

Why not tip your hat to someone?

What creates the spark behind an illustration? There’s nothing I love better than playing idea ping-pong with a co-collaborator.

This illustration was created for a series of credentialing workshops with Badge guru Doug Belshaw for the N-TUTORR project.

Just hit the button on a post @dajb and I co-wrote. Actually, Doug did most of the work and I just said some random stuff and then it became this pretty awesome post about #FOSS #ideology #verifiablecredentials https://blog.weareopen.coop/examining-the-roots-248077d11c2b #openbadges #openrecognition #digitalcredentials

Last month I and my co-workers from @weareopencoop attended the #openepic conference in vienna. unfortuanletly I caught covid and got sick the day I was supposed to give my talk. Which means I now recorded it and everybody not just the conference attendees can enjoy this introduction into something that I like to call "Open Feminist Workplace Recognition" to sound very sophisticated

@Bristow_69 You’ll want to look at @dajb ‘s work, as he’s well placed to talk about the history and the future of #OpenBadges and #OpenRecognition. He will probably point at more recent resources on the subject, but here is already a post from last year on “Open Badges is now on the plateau of productivity”: https://dougbelshaw.com/blog/2022/03/18/open-badges-fers/

Purdue University had something like this almost a decade ago, but there’s even more call for this kind of thing now, post-pandemic and in a Verifiable Credentials landscape.
Everyone’s addicted to marrying ‘skills’ with ‘jobs’ but I think there’s definitely an Open Recognition aspect to all of this.

There’s some discussion of students ‘gaming the system’ in this article about ungrading university courses, but nothing much about AI tools like ChatGPT. This movement has been gathering pace for years, and I think that we’re at a tipping point.
Hopefully, this will lead to more Open Recognition practices rather than just breaking down chunky […]
