Welcome To the ICT Ladders for Badges Version 2.1 This badges system has a range of ladders / rubrics that tie in with our badges system for ICT. This system allows pupils, parents and adults to award badges for skills displayed while using a wide range of I.C.T. tools within their learning projects. The system consists of this resource, administration notes, Google Forms for tracking and the badges themselves. It also ties in with our school achievement badges for ICT (Bronze, Silver, Gold) and becoming an I.C.T. Crew member. These Ladders are NOT a system to teach to but rather something to incorporate within learning topics and journeys to allow self assessment and peer assement of the skills that individuals have picked up. Teachers have their own training (PD) system that will introduce them to these. Notes: Some of these that are blank or that have sections that are blank are the ones that we are currently working on.
