Digital Literacy Surveys / OpenBadges Project


Open Badges communicate skills and achievements by providing a visual representation of your accomplishments packed with verifiable data and evidence.

Open Badges enable you to take your learning with you, wherever you go, building a rich picture of your lifelong learning journey.

The Backpack lets you store the Open Badges you earn, and share them between platforms, anywhere on the web. It gives you complete control over your own achievements by allowing you to organize and display your badges in the places that matter to you.

It's simple to use, just and upload or push the badges you have earned in other platforms into it.

The Backpack is trusted worldwide, with over 1 million badges already stored.

DIGITAL LITERACY ASSESSMENTS


Today you will be working on Digital Literacy.  
Start the program by viewing the following website:


Spend time in class working on each of the nine (9) Digital Literacy Assessments.  After each test, if you pass, you can select to Collect a MOZILLA DIGITAL BADGE.  Follow the instructions below to add the badges to your profile.  Once you have completed as many badges as you can, send an email to Mr. Scribner (hscribner@ccs.us) with a picture of your BADGE PAGE (See Below).  

You must complete a minimum of six (6) Digital Literacy Assessments to receive credit for this project.  I will circulate to make sure the badges are on your log in page any time you request a check.  You may continue to retake the assessments as many times as it takes to get a passing score.

Good Luck!

Mr. S

Integrity (13 Characteristics)

13 Characteristics of People Who Have Integrity

1. They Value Other People's Time: They value their own time so they also value the time of other people. They know you have plenty of other places you need to be and won’t hold you up. If you spend time with them, it is likely they will thank you for that as well.

2. They Give Credit Where It Is Due: They do not take credit for things they did not do. They will always credit those who deserve it. If you help this person with a project he or she will likely mention your name so you can take credit for your work.

3. They Are Authentic: They are their truest forms. You won’t catch them in a lie or being fake.

4. They Are Always Honest: They are honest people that feel no need to lie as it is important for them to get to where they need to get in life honestly.

5. They Never Take Advantage Of Others: They are not the kind of people who will take advantage of someone else. They love to build people up and help them get where they need to be. Taking too much from someone else will never be an issue with someone who has a lot of integrity.

6. The Do Not Argue Over Disagreements: They will talk through things in a civil manner or not talk at all. You cannot and will not force this person into arguing over something completely ridiculous. I find this to be a very respectable trait.

7. They Give Most People The Benefit Of The Doubt: They try to see the good in everyone. I think this is because they feel like maybe there are more people in this world that also have integrity. That being said, if you take advantage of them too much they will get rid of you.

8. They Know When Something Is Bothering Someone: They have a great intuition that lets them know when something is going on. If someone is down in the dumps they will notice. Chances are they will actually do what they can to cheer you up.

9. They Believe In Others: They accept your word as truth until it is dis-proven. That being said, they do not take lying well. And once you lie to them, it is unlikely that they will ever take your word again.

10. They Apologize First: If they have done something wrong they will come to you and apologize. This is just how they are. They own up to their mistake and try to make things right.

11. They Are Humble: They do not quite know their own worth. While they are very important and do so much good they don’t quite see it. You should remind them of it.

12. They Do Good When They Can: They are always helping other people. They love to know that they have improved someone’s life. It gives their lives meaning.

13. They Are Always Kind To Those Who Need It: Giving kindness can go a long way. When someone looks like they need a little pick me up these people deliver. They can brighten up almost anyone’s day.

If you are someone who has true integrity, thank you for being who you are and thank you for all that you do. You really do actually make a difference in society, please keep up the good work. If you feel no one else is proud of you, know that I am.
