This document discusses using xAPI and the Internet of Things for employee onboarding. It introduces Finbert, an xAPI Gnome who goes through the onboarding process. Key learnings from using xAPI for this include: reading data from the learning record store is essential to track completion; determining appropriate verbs can be difficult; completion needs to be clearly defined as checking off a checklist or recording all statements; and this sparks ideas for other learning projects. The document promotes joining upcoming xAPI learning cohorts to continue exploring these issues.

- 11. Tell us… • What are you doing with xAPI?
- 12. What is xAPI? • Answer #1 Next-generation SCORM • Answer #2 A protocol for recording any learning experience to give a more rich picture of the development path. • Answer #3 A protocol and language for sending and retrieving data about learning experiences: activity statements • Answer #4 Independence from “silo-ed” LMS, allowing you to connect multiple learning and business platforms • Answer #5 “the holy grail” where we can correlate job performance data with training data to assess people and training effectiveness
- 13. What is an LRS? The LRS (Learning Records Store) is the database that captures all these transactions. It receives, stores and serves back xAPI data. Typically an LRS comes with a number of data visualizations that let you interpret and use the data you’ve sent.

- 15. When we live in a SCORM world … • We focus on the instruction & the media in elearning. • Developer tools do the heavy lifting for SCORM. • We don’t think much about data or reporting. • We may struggle to tie learning “completions” to organization results. • We probably don’t track out-of-LMS learning at depth or scale.
- 16. In an xAPI world … • We focus on the instruction & the media & the data in everything. • There are very few rich developer tools do the heavy lifting for xAPI yet. • We now get to think about data and reporting. • We can tie learning & behavior to organization results if we do it right. • We can track out-of-LMS learning at depth and scale. • We can import behaviors & organizational results tied to learning. … & connect to the Internet of Things.
- 17. Tell us… • What are you doing with Internet of Things?
- 18. What is this Internet of Things? “IoT is a concept that describes a future where devices, systems and services around the world are interconnected across a common network (typically the Internet) and are able to interact in ways that fundamentally enhance the way we live our lives.” US Ignite Global Cities Challenge (2014) https://us- ignite.org/globalcityteams/faq/

- 21. About that Internet of Things… “Connectivity and devices are just enablers. The real value for users is created by making sense of the data that those devices generate. Sensors generate data, data produces knowledge, knowledge drives action.” Schuermans & Vakulenko (2014) IoT: Breaking Free From Internet and Things - How Communities and Data will Shape the Future of IoT in Ways We Can’t Imagine
- 24. These Things don’t fit neatly in a SCORM box.

- 34. Reporting out: ADL’s Design Cohort Learning Experience • Sponsored by the ADL • Some 15 teams • Worked along side each other for 13 weeks • Each team worked on a project of their choosing in which they experimented and implemented some aspect of the xAPI • Weekly meetings across all teams to share ideas, lessons learned, guest presentations, etc. • Fabulous way to learn by doing. • This is where Meg and Patrick met.

- 46. What questions do you have?
- 47. So what did we learn?
- 48. Reading data from the LRS is essential • Use callbacks: checklist items are only marked complete visually when the LRS says so • Allows us to act upon the recording of individual xAPI statements as they occur • This reading of the LRS is what enabled the connection between the learning and the IoT – this is how we found out what was going on outside the learning environment.
- 49. Sourcing our verbs • Smart: Grammar counts • Hard: There is no one source of all verbs • Then: Make up your own
- 50. What is complete? • Completion!?!?! • Checklist sends “Complete” to LRS once all items are checked off • We built a “Complete All” button • Checklist determines completion vs. LRS/LMS determining completion
- 51. What comes next? • What questions do you have? • What ideas does this spark for your own learning projects?
- 52. Join the xAPI Learning Cohorts starting February 2016! Meg Fairchild mfairchild@torrancelearning.com Patrick Selby vreten@gmail.com @xAPIGnome
