Ep. 6: Badges and Education
In episode 6 I speak with Jade Forester who helps run marketing and community for the Open Badge Alliance. Education today is broken and the value of traditional institutions is declining especially as the popularity of open courses such as Udemy and Coursera continues to increase. One solution to this might be open badges which are designed to represent you and your skills more accurately. In this episode Jade shares her insight around the problems with today's modern education system and how open badges can very well be the future of education. (Music by Ronald Jenkees)
