5. Interoperability…
• a
measure
for
the
degree
to
which
diverse
systems,
organiza5ons,
and
or
individuals
are
able
to
work
together
to
achieve
a
common
goal.

How
to
improve
interoperability
between
live

and
systems?

8.
The
ADL
Ini5a5ve
recently
spearheads
two
interoperability
ini5a5ves:
• The
Experience
API
(xAPI)
• Training
and
Learning
Architecture
(TLA)

9. Experience
API
(xAPI)
• A
new
interoperability
specifica5on
for
recording
and
exchanging
learner
experiences
among
live
tools
and
services
• Main
Components:
– Ac5vity
Streams
– Learning
Record
Stores
• storage
for
ac5vity
statements
and
streams
• Support
exis5ng
SCORM
use

10. Training
and
Learning
Architecture
(TLA)
(ADL
Ini5a5ve,
2013)
• It
is
a
dra_
specifica5on
• Next
genera5on
of
SCORM
• Its
components
are
linked
with
specifica5ons
based
on
4
key
concepts

16. Conclusions
&
Next
Steps
• Standardiza5on
and
tracking
of
learner’s
ac5vi5es
– enables
the
exchange
of
this
informa5on
between
the
app
and
other
learning
environments
– provides
useful
educa5onal
insights
for
tutors
– provides
meaningful
informa5on
for
the
learners’
profile
• Device
agnos5c
UI
of
the
applica5on
makes
it
interoperable
with
several
mobile
plaeorms
• A
more
flexible
approach
for
the
integra5on
of
the
LMSes
with
