Why xAPI? A Business Leader's Getting Started GuideMargaret Roth
For many L&D teams, getting started with xAPI is all about finding the balance between meeting strategic organization-wide data transformation goals and defining an achievable, feasible, and valuable team-level proof of concept. Getting to this happy medium requires not only an understanding of technical functionality, but more importantly the ability to help your stakeholders understand how they will benefit from an xAPI-powered learning ecosystem and data strategy.
In this webinar, you'll gain an understanding of the foundational conceptual and technical components of xAPI, see examples of xAPI-powered learning ecosystem pilot projects, and learn the necessary first steps to get your team xAPI ready for 2019!

Powering Next-Gen Learning with VR and xAPI - DevLearn 2018Margaret Roth
Virtual reality technologies have long been the promise of the future but just out of reach for the mainstream. Recent VR innovations, though, have allowed instructional designers and learning engineers to create and distribute custom VR content in ways that make VR a transformative part of training and learning programs across industries. When combined with xAPI, these futuristic technologies allow you to gain never-before-captured insights from next-gen digital experiences.
This session will take a look at how VR powered by xAPI is currently being used by instructional designers, learning engineers, and L&D professionals to gain new insights from next-gen learning experiences. You will explore case studies that demonstrate how VR interactions allow learners to explore and participate in engaging and intuitive 360-degree virtual environments designed to expand their vision and promote learning, impact, and retention. You will see case studies demonstrating how organizations are using xAPI-enabled VR content to enhance learning, from safety and compliance to onboarding and training.

How to Plan for Your xAPI Pilot - xAPI Camp at DevLearn 2018 - Yet Analytics Margaret Roth
From an organization-wide executive directive to become more data-driven, a retail corporate L&D team took an internal look at their own data practices. Realizing that they had an overwhelming lack of transparency into their learning initiatives and a great amount of data that had gone unused, the team developed a transformation vision to create a single system of record for learning to enable observability, granularity, and accountability for all team members. The team was committed to the vision of xAPI; however, the data and information they needed in order to make actionable change for their learners was locked away in non-interoperable formats, and they recognized the need to develop a data strategy and implementation plan.

IEEE TAG xAPI Webinar Series: Improving the Learner Experience Through an xAP...Margaret Roth
As part of the xAPI Case Studies Webinar Series hosted by the IEEE LTSC TAG xAPI, this presentation gives an overview of the creation of the Learning Commons. The Learning Commons is a shared space for connecting and accelerating educator learning created in partnership by the Learning Accelerator and Yet Analytics with support from innovative education organizations. The Learning Commons is an xAPI-enabled, multi-source content portal designed from the ground up with xAPI as part of the data model, powering a unified learner experience interface that allows learners to see how the informal learning content they work with aligns to competencies and skills they are working to build. As learners utilize content through curated playlists, skill and competency development is automatically tracked and presented back to learners, cohort leaders, and content providers through xAPI data.
The Google Slides version can be accessed at http://goog.gl/HfuscA. This presentation was presented in the xAPI Case Studies Webinar Series hosted by the IEEE LTSC TAG xAPI group on April 17, 2018.
Modern Learning Ecosystem Design with xAPIMargaret Roth
While the L&D community is increasingly familiar with the Experience API (xAPI) and its value for data collection and interoperability, few examples exist to clarify the value of xAPI as applied within different existing learning infrastructures. This session focused on sharing the ways xAPI can connect and provide value in any eLearning environment.
These slides present a series of different learning ecosystem configurations and the ways xAPI and a learning record store (LRS) can provide value in each case. The three main learning ecosystem configurations examined range from the simplest (LMS and LRS) to three systems connected (LMS, LRS, and CMS) to the fully modular (LRS, LMS, simulations, microlearning, performance assessment, and other tools). For each of these configurations, the presentation shares specific values and practical applications gained by connecting an xAPI LRS to the existing system.
This presentation was originally shared as part of the eLearning Guild's 2018 Learning Solutions conference on March 28, 2018.
Data Visualization and Learning Analytics with xAPIMargaret Roth
With the Experience API we are able to collect more granular, high-resolution data from our learning tools and platforms. But once we have that data, how do we present it in ways that easily communicate the right insights to our stakeholders?
In this presentation from the xAPI Cohort's Spring 2018 session, you'll find a brief historical survey of data visualizations, three keys to designing good data visualizations, and case studies of xAPI specific data visualizations and the insights they provided to organizations.
A Business User's Guide to Getting Started with xAPIMargaret Roth
This session was presented at the 2018 Association for Talent Development's TechKnowledge Conference in San Jose, CA.
The Experience API (xAPI) and the learning record store (LRS) are powerful tools for any learning organization, providing improved visibility into learning data. This session focuses on practical business outcomes, using high-level case studies to demonstrate short- and long-term benefits of xAPI. In this session, we will address how xAPI can fit into your learning ecosystem, and how it compares with other learning standards. We'll also discuss the first steps to testing and validating the value of xAPI for your organization.

Reimagining Progress Reports for Mastery-Based EducationMargaret Roth
Leveraging xAPI and the Yet xAPI Learning Record Store, data from across learning tools and platforms have been unified to provide automated reporting to learners and other stakeholders at Khan Lab School.
Khan Lab School is an independent school associated with Khan Academy that runs a personalized, mixed-age program with a project-based learning approach. Because KLS tracks mastery instead of letter grades and groups students by independence level instead of age, a new kind of reporting system is needed to show student progress. Yet Analytics has built role-specific data dashboards for students, teachers, and leadership that pulls data from digital and in-person learning activity to provide a unified view of student progress at KLS.
This presentation was presented at xAPI Camp at DevLearn 2017.
From Data Visualization to Role-Specific Data DiscoveryMargaret Roth
When we think about creating an xAPI data ecosystem, we often focus on how will we collect and connect data from across the Learning & Development and HR ecosystem. But once we have that data all in one place in our Learning Record Store, now we can really get to using it. In this presentation to the Fall 2017 xAPI Cohort, we explored why and how we can use data visualizations and interactive analytics to help us see patterns in our data and apply that insight to our work. Additionally, we took a look at some role-specific xAPI data dashboards from the point of view of Managers, Instructors, and Learners.
Intro to xAPI: Perspectives from Across the OrganizationMargaret Roth
Take an intro to xAPI from the perspective of different stakeholders in the learning and development ecosystem. See how leveraging xAPI data with the Yet xAPI Learning Record Store can improve outcomes for individual learners, instructors, instructional designers, managers, and organizations.
These slides are from EdTechWomen's annual facilitated networking discussion at SXSWedu and feature questions on a discussion on the intersectionality of race and the women's rights movement, as it relates to roles in education, technology, and the workplace.
Presented to the xAPI learning cohort in February 2017, these slides outline different models for designing modular learning ecosystems that leverage the Experience API.
