Experience API (xAPI)

A specification for learning technology that makes it possible to collect data about the wide range of learning experiences a student has both online and offline. This Application Programme Interface (API) captures data in a consistent format about a person or group’s activities from many technologies. The data is then stored in a Learning Record Store that can be accessed by an LMS like Moodle. Sometimes called xAPI or formerly Tin Can.
