Micro-credentials are to credentials what modularisation is to course instruction

Behaviourism
Badge “pathways,” the latest avatar of behaviourist theory
“In the 'model' approach, personalization typically means more: more options, more choices, more types of tests, etc. You need to customize the environment (the learning) [to] fit the student.In the 'connections' approach, personalization typically means less: fewer rules, fewer constraints. You need to grant the learner autonomy within the environment.”
Stephen Downes. “Connectivism and Connective Knowledge.”
Connectiv ism vs.Behaviourism
Fragmentation
Learning
One of the main dangers with micro-credentials is the fragmentation of learning into a series of meaningless activitieswith no relation to high order goals.
