Understanding the basics of xAPI is a hurdle most instructional designers have already crossed over the last few years. We've all been waiting to see xAPI in action. Theory is great but seeing what new innovations can do changes minds and gets projects approved.
If you've still been waiting to SEE it before you can believe it then in this episode we make that happen for you.
Duncan Welder has been building xAPI solutions for a very long time and joined us to share a few examples of "xAPI in the wild".
We looked at a few examples, including:
- Tracking the Mastery of Objectives
- Microlearning/Spaced Repetition
- xAPI in Games and Simulations
- Adaptive Learning
- Visualizations for L&D
We hope this conversation gives you some inspiration to finally jump into the world of xAPI and begin building xAPI-enabled learning solutions.
