Welcome to the Acorn Project!
You can use this "Smaoinigh Mor - Think Big!" Learning Playlist to earn digital badges throughout your learning journey in the class. Check out the different activities below to see what you can get badges for. These badges support your learning beside the topics and issues you discuss in the class. They are evidence for your attendance, your engagement, your group work and much more!
The badges represent the skills you gain while being in class, engaging with others and working on your graduation. At the end, you can generate a certificate with all your badges and you can even add it to your CV!
