LiveCode interface to SCORM /LIT

[William Prothero]

Folks:
Here’s some more info I found on interfaces to LMS. I queried the director (a friend) of the Office of Instructional Improvement at the University of California, Santa Barbara and got this response:

"Hey, good to hear from you.  Sorry for the delayed response, but yesterday was the first day of classes for fall.  I also had to do a bit of research. In terms of interoperability with LMS’s  the best option, I think, is for the Livecode guys to focus on the LTI 2 standards and APIs for defining an LTI 2 content publisher and LTI 2 content consumer.  That is the interoperability piece.  xAPI is a set of API’s for collecting and storing user interaction data for later analysis, e.g. learning analytics.  It is a standard proposed by ADL.  It is kind of competing in that space with Caliper with is being developed by IMS global, and which is intended to work with the LTI 2 standard which IMS Global is also developing. I would think that it would be better to stick with the whole IMS Global suite of interoperability standards and analytics collection standards than trying to knit LTI 2 and xAPI, but that’s just me.  The UC system has been very involved with development of both standards working with IMS Global for the past three years.  Hope that helps.”

Best,
