Travelling around, reading the suggested material given in the MOOC,surfing in the web, investigating all around I discovered Credly.
Credly
I really liked it. It surprised me. How you can design your own badge for student's in five minutes. First, you should have an account, very simple way to be a member. And “voilà”! You are in.
And also you receive a badge for being an active member. Look, this is mine:
I am just starting with the design of my first badge. I started designing it in http://www.makebadg.es/# and then, I adjusted in Credly. This was the result:

* How can digital badges motivate my students?
It is a way to recognize they form part of a group and badges are also a way of gamification and focus students in the classroom.
A high MOTIVATION for students when they get a badge after a well-done work, or great effort to reach final result. And when teachers get a badge or certification after doing a course or test, it becomes them highly motivated for continuing doing a great work, that is TEACHING,COACHING.
I am in the way😊
Hi Coromoto! So nice to know we both prepare students who sit Cambridge exams!. Also, I´d like to add that the badge you designed is fantastic to motivate children and Credly is a great tool.(especially because you can get one whenever you participate) Who doesn´t like to be rewarded! Children DO!
