So far using the BuckeyeBadges system has been very simple to use. The only recommendation I have is finding a simpilarer way to get started and getting signed up. I didn’t really like having to jump from page to page and website to website to get it up in running. After I got started the directions were very clear on how to do the rest of the process.
BuckeyeBadges are very new and different to me, I get the concept behind what they do and how they are to be achieved and how they are to be used. My only problem with them is how to do we get companies and potential employers to look at them and understand what they mean. Other than that I can see how they will be very beneficial in the upcoming future.
For this really to take off I would recommend that there should be a half semester mandatory class for all incoming freshman to take on how to operate u.osu.edu and BuckeyeBadges. I won’t be graduating until December and I won’t be able to take full advantage of the badging system. Since I just got started I don’t have very much to show for my collection of badges. I’m gonna try to make the most of my time left here and earn as many badges as I can.
