Learning Ecosystems Using the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT) and the Experience API (xAPI)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Learning ecosystems provide a combination of technologies and support resources available to help individuals learn within an environment [1]. The Experience API (xAPI) is an enabling specification for learning ecosystems, which provides a method for producing interoperable data that can be shared within a learning ecosystem [2]. Version 4.1 of the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT) provides support to both produce and consume xAPI data. A number of use cases are enabled by this support. This paper will explore the use cases, functionality enabled, setup and design guidance in addition to exploring practical applications for using GIFT and xAPI within learning ecosystems.
