This document discusses Open Badge Passport, which is a platform for creating ePortfolios using open badges. Open Badges contain information about achievements and competencies that can be shared digitally. Open Badge Passport allows users to build micro-portfolios by collecting and displaying their badges to showcase their skills and qualifications. These badge-based portfolios are searchable, dynamic, and can help users set goals and match their skills to job requirements. The presenter believes Open Badges can motivate lifelong learning by helping users meaningfully document their achievements.
