Informal learning is not an inferior form of learning, it is learning

Informal recognition is not an inferior form of recognition, it is recognition

Informal learning is not an inferior form of learning, it is learning

Informal recognition is not an inferior form of learning, it is recognition

I learn

Can’t we also be recognised as recognisant agents?

Open Recognition FrameworkThe aim of MIRVA, is to study the conditions of an Informal Recognition environment through the exploration of:

• The potential benefits of Open Endorsement as proposed by the Open Badge 2.0 specification;

• The conditions (technical, educational, political, etc.) for the successful implementation of Open Endorsement;

• The services that could emerge from the information generated through Open Endorsement;

• The mitigation of the risks of poor endorsements practices (e.g. LinkedIn!);

• The conditions for creation of an effective continuum between informal and formal recognition;
