The 5 Types
STLP groups can claim badges for a number of different activities. Various Level Up badges are listed under 5 different categories: Achievement, Collaboration, Contribution, Progression, and Challenges. Here are some examples:
ACHIEVEMENT – Earn public recognition for completing events (register a Fall Showcase Project, for example)
COLLABORATION – Work with others to accomplish goals (do a Lync call with another STLP group to peer review a Digital Product, for example)
CONTRIBUTION – Sharing content, news, ideas, feedback as a way to connect STLP with your school, parents, community and peers (submit an idea for a new badge, for example)
PROGRESSION – Level up by achieving cumulative badges (compete in every category of a state level event, for example)
CHALLENGES – Tackle new activity challenges within a limited amount of time (posted randomly throughout the year – for example, Post a Picture of your STLP with your Superintendent)
