Merit Badge Requirements: 

​

Requirement #1c: (Prerequisite)
Come with a list of as many ways as you can think of to communicate with others (e.g., face-to-face, telephone, and so on). For each type of communication, think of an instance when that method might not be appropriate or effective.

​

Requirement #2: (Prerequisite)
Think of a creative way to introduce yourself. You will describe yourself using, for example, a collage, short story or autobiography, drawing or series of photographs, or a song or skit. During the Zoom session, you will use your aid (a collage, short story or autobiography, drawing or series of photographs, or a song or skit) to introduce yourself. You can show photos or aids to the camera, but you can't use screen share. 

​

Requirement #3: (Prerequisite)
Write a five-minute speech. Give it at a meeting of a group.
- To complete this, Scouts will present this five-minute speech during the Zoom session.

​

Requirement #6: (Prerequisite)
With your counselor's approval, develop a plan to teach a skill or inform someone about something. Prepare teaching aids for your plan. Carry out your plan. With your counselor, determine whether the person has learned what you intended.

​

Camera Requirement:

• All participants MUST have their cameras on during online sessions.

• If you are unable to turn your camera on, you will not be allowed to stay in the session and will need to rebook at your parent/guardian's expense.
   

 How to submit completed work:

• Use the Online Classroom: https://form.jotform.com/260716209559059

• The online classroom does not auto-save work. You need to hit the save button to save a draft.

• Saved Drafts are auto-deleted after 2 months, so save your work in your own WORD doc or Google Doc and copy and paste into the online classroom.

• Scouts have THREE months after the session to complete this.

 

Blue Cards:

• Upon submitting work in the online classroom and approval from our merit badge counselor, Scouts will be issued a digital blue card signed by our merit badge counselor. This can be done with a digital PDF or signed on Scoutbook.com​
