Using Badgr's Course Leaderboard
Badgr has a new course leaderboard, a privacy-aware method of allowing students to track each other's progress through a course learning pathway.

Enabling Badgr Course Leaderboard
Teachers using the Badgr app in their courses have a Leaderboard tab. The leaderboard is disabled by default, but turning it on is as easy as checking the box. Once enabled, teachers and students will be able to access the leaderboard showing course progress sorted by which students have earned the most badges (not grades). Teachers can view students' real names, but students will only see cute randomly-generated animal nicknames for each other by default.

Student View
Note: the logged in student is listed second for having earned 4 of 6 available badges.
Students can see their own real name, but only an animal nickname for all of the other students. If they de-select the "Keep my name private" box, other students will see them as their real name. The leaderboard scrolls and paginates through the full list of students and course objectives.
