Credentials
Micro-credentials are to credentials what 

modularisation is to course instruction
Both approches are
grounded in behaviourism
to infer human behaviour
A theory based on
the study of pigeons
Behaviourism
Badge “pathways,” the latest
avatar of behaviourist theory
“In the 'model' approach, personalization typically means more:
more options, more choices, more types of tests, etc.You need to
customize the environment (the learning) [to] fit the student.
In the 'connections' approach, personalization typically means
less: fewer rules, fewer constraints.You need to grant the learner
autonomy within the environment.”
Stephen Downes.“Connectivism and Connective Knowledge.”
Connectivism vs.Behaviourism
Fragmentation
Learning
One of the main dangers with micro-
credentials is the fragmentation of learning
into a series of meaningless activities

with no relation to high order goals.

The Open Badge Passport aims at
enabling the seamless issuing, collection,
organisation, display, discovery and
exploitation of digital credentials.
By establishing and nurturing networks
of trust, it encourages the emergence
of a new generation of services
