DISCOVERLINK TALENT TIN CAN

WHAT IS TIN CAN?


• Tin Can is the next evolution of SCORM specification

• Tin Can records learning in the form of “Action Statements”…

• For example: “John passed Guitar 101”, or “Josh read Business Ethics”

• These statements are sent to what is called a “LRS”

What is Tin Can?

What is an LRS?

• A Learning Record Store (LRS) is a place where learning statements are stored

• The LRS acts as a repository for these learning statements and then sends those statements to the LMS

• When Tin-Can API statements are created, they are sent to an LRS

• Tin Can • xAPI• Experience API
