Title: Can digital badges strengthen religious ethnic-cultural identity in a religious education setting?

Subject Terms: *Digital badges in education, *Cultural identity, *Student participation, *Religious education, Religious identity
Abstract: Through interviews with student participants and evidence submitted to earn digital badges, a number of indicators suggest that a religious school's digital badges can provide opportunity to strengthen religious identity. In particular, student interviews and evidence supplied for the completion of learning objectives for digital badges indicate increases of religious salience (compared to secular practices), religious commitment within a community, and self-esteem based on religious identity. Recommendations are made for ongoing and future religious badge implementations on how to strengthen religious identity while meeting the requirements of authentic, quality assessments.
