Obtaining a Badge
Microcredentials are signified by a digital badge. Jax MIX microcredentials require a three-course focus, plus attendance at three events, a work product, and a reflection related to the focus.
Microcredential = Focus + 3 events + Course project or community service or leadership + Reflection
After successful completion of a focus and attending related three events, you can register for a badge course to submit a work product and reflection connected to the microcredential. The work product may be a longer traditional project from any course, an internship, study abroad, research, community service, etc. that relates to the Jax MIX microcredential. Sample work products and more information about the guided reflection are available in the badge courses.
If you are planning to acquire a microcredential you should enroll in the appropriate badge course in the semester you plan to complete your work product and reflection. You may earn up to three (3) badges by completing all the requirements for those Jax MIX microcredentials.
Badge courses include:
- MIX 295 Community Engagement Badge
- MIX 296 Environmental Stewardship Badge
- MIX 297 Ethical Leadership Badge
- MIX 298 Global Connections Badge
- MIX 299 Media Literacy Badge
