Digital Badges for Safety Tests

Posted on by Mr Sully

Getting ready for 2016? Thinking about safety tests for your students? Perhaps using digital badges to foster engagement and keep the momentum going as you plough through that dry but absolutely necessary WHS material. I created these earlier in the year for my school and thought I’d place them here for others to build on.

These badges were made using Adobe Illustrator (saved as CS4). I’ve removed my schools details and locked all the layers except for the text where you should place your own details. Feel free to download them and use them as is or unlock the layers and change them totally.

If you make any new designs and want to share, I’d love to see what you have done.

Above is the poster I used around the school to get students motivated for the badges. Click on it to download the ZIP file which contains all the badges and the poster and have fun.

Design a Postage Stamp

Posted on by Mr Sully

I’ve recently started to get interested in self contained units of work delivered by interactive PDFs. Here’s the design a Postage Stamp unit for my graphics class with a new tutorial which is shorter and clearer. Click on the Stamp below to download it. The pencil on page one controls the marking tools on page 7-8, you click the tip to show them and the eraser to hide them. Not that it’s a great concern if students figure this out, I’ll still mark it even if they have already self assessed. I mostly wanted to experiment with the possibilities of using layers in a PDF document. If anyone knows how to add security or permissions to individual layers I’d love to hear from you.

This document is full of my own self promotional rubbish (just delete it) sorry, if you would like access to the original InDesign documents just drop me a line and I’ll package it up and stick it in my Dropbox for you.
