The New Learning Paradigm-Tin Can API
Learning happens beyond the LMS and formal environments often available. Additionally, new demands and opportunities for mobile learning are met with uncertainties for integration to a broader strategy. The Tin Can API or Experience API (xAPI) is an emerging standard aiming to evolve the learning technology marketplace. In short, it’s the next generation of the SCORM and is poised to change the paradigm of enterprise learning.
The xAPI allows capture of the streams of learning activities and experiences, both online and offline and has major implications to capture and improve formal, informal, and experiential learning in organizations. Market opportunities and emerging products are quickly evolving out of the affordances of the effort. Find out what the xAPI is, what it will cause in the marketplace, what to expect in the future, and how stay on top of this rapidly emerging space.
