What  is  xAPI  

“The  Experience  API  is  an  e-­‐learning  soMware  specificaHon  that  allows  learning  content  and  systems  to  speak  to  each  other  in  a  manner  that  records  and  tracks  all  types  of  learning  experiences”.    

 Part  1  -­‐  The  xAPI  Statement  

[Something]  says  that  [I]  [did]  [this]  in  the  context  of  [  _____  ]  with  result  [  _____  ]  on  [date]*.  

[Something]  says  that  [I]  [did]  [this]    

Can  include  instructor,  groups,  team,  geographies,  and  much  more.  

Part  2  -­‐  Learning  Record  Store  

•  A  Learning  Record  Store  (LRS)  is  a  repository  for  learning  records  (statements)

PLANNING  FOR  XAPI  

Mobile  Phone  Company  

•  Seat  at  the  table  

•  Change  the  conversaHon  

•  Focus  on  behaviors  

•  Measure  Success  

“High  5”  

Ask  Ourselves  

•  What  behaviors  do  top  performers  exhibit?  

•  Can  we  quanHfy  the  behavior  change?    

•  What  impact  will  training  have  on  sales?

What  does  a  employee  know  (e.g.  specific  skills  and  concepts  or  procedural  knowledge)?  

User  Behavior  

 What  students  are  on/off  task?    

User  Experience  

Are  students  saHsfied  with  the  learning  experience?    

Profiling  

What  groups  do  users  cluster  into?    

Domain  

What  is  the  correct  level  at  which  to  divide  topics  into  modules  and  how  should  these  modules  be  sequenced?    

PredicMve  

Who  is  likely  to  succeed  or  fail?    

Learning  Components  

What  quesHons  have  a  stronger  correlaHon  to  success?      

Trends  

What  changes  over  Hme  and  how?

IMPLEMENTATION  

57  

Steps  to  GeJng  Started  

1.  Commit  to  a  performance  support  model  

2.  IdenHfy  sources  of  employee  learning    

3.  Start  small,  prove  the  model,  and  expand  over  Hme  

4.  Iterate  what-­‐who-­‐how  you  are  analyzing    

58  

SelecHng  a  LRS  

•  Levels  of  FuncHonality  – Basic  aggregaHon  of  data  – Standard  reporHng    – Advanced  analysis  

•  Within  an  LMS  or  Independent?  – FuncHon  – Pricing    

•  SoMware  as  a  Service  (SaaS)  or  installed
