Knowledge, Learning, Community

This is a comprehensive guide (41 page PDF) describing the history, content and application of the Experience API (xAPI) specification. "xAPI is an application programming interface which allows software applications to exchange data regarding human activity. Designed for the domain of learning, xAPI enables the capture of data about human performance and its context." The document is authored by many of the people responsible for developing and implementing the specification and will be enormously useful for those developing personalized applications in learning technology. A list of conformant Learning Record Stores (LRS) and xAPI adopters can be found on this ADL page.
