What can you do with xAPI?
• Learn more about the learning experience – not just elearning
• Learn more about the performance
• Correlate learning with performance
• Offer more targeted training
• Support performance in better ways
• Use data to learn with others
• Compare performance and learning across learners
• Deliver and track training outside of the LMS

The Learning Record Store
… receives, stores, gives back xAPI data
… can be tested for conformance which ensures interoperability (https://adopters.adlnet.gov/)
… is not a learning management system (LMS)

2 ways to receive data: the Learning Record Store
You send data to an LRS separate from an LMS.
Your LMS has an LRS inside it.
