2. Ways to Award Badges

2.3. Awarding a Badge Based on Previously Awarded Badges

Awarding a Badge Based on Previously Awarded Badges

You can award badges based on previously awarded badges.  This is an interesting way to award a badge, and ways you use this are limited solely by your imagination and the courses your instructors are managing.  The content below is from our Advanced Usage of Moodle course, where your teachers can reference it for further support.  

In order to explain how this process works, let's work through a sample scenario together.  Let's consider that you have a course with quizzes in place.  Assuming you'd like learners to score high grades on their exams, you could create a badge within your course that highlights their achievement when they do so.  

Please consider that you'll have to tie in the activity completion settings for these quizzes so that they are considered "complete" when a learner achieves your "grade to pass".

If learners in your course earn this badge you could set another badge to automatically trigger and be awarded to those same users.
