Digital Leaders at #BETT15 #DLsBETT15
There is a lot going on – see here for DL related activities at BETT15.
I am going to be tasking my LLS DLs with gaining evidence for 2 of their badges at BETT15 –
Networker Badge / Level 2 (click to see details)
This fits with everything they will be doing on the day
Reviewer Badge / Level 2 (click to see details)
Their choice but perhaps tablets / computing apps / computing resources / latest tech working in pairs
(the full range of Level 2 badges is here with suggested evidence)
my roadmap links explain all about these and the badges on makewaves.
@Jodieworld’s post Digital Leaders at BETT – get involved in the conversation! – #DLsBETT15 outlines further activities.

Earning your Digital Leader #openbadges
First, log into Makewaves. Then click on this link to see all 18 available badges: www.makewav.es/badges/16966
Choose your badge mission. If you are a LLS DL, it will be a level 2 badge (although you have evidence for Level 2 you probably have enough for a Level 1 badge too). More

Managing Digital Leaders using Google Apps for Education
LLS DLs have been working hard this term to provide evidence to start to gain their #DLOpenBadges. We thought it would be useful to show how we manage ourselves on a weekly basis including how we use Google Apps for Education.
LLS DLs gave a copy of this year’s poster to each teacher at their RiskIT 4 a Biscuit talk.
Management Meetings:
Our senior DLs (who have been DLs for 2 or more years) meet during Monday tutor times (15 mins) for their management meeting, and Year 7 DLs meet during Thursday tutor time for their management meeting. All DLs have access to a shared drive on Google Apps with the most important being a Shared Project doc. Like a home page of a website, this is the go-to place to find out what is going on, especially if you have to miss a meeting. With it being a google doc, it is very easy to link to other pages and documents of interest. More
