As this post notes, "XAPI was "the thing" to have at DevLearn last week." So everybody was talking about xAPI compliance but according to this article there's no body to certify compliance (though I'm not sure personally how much that would help). "XAPI is a huge leap forward from SCORM. Its intent is to reduce everything to a simple yet all-encompassing, highly granular triplet using nouns, verbs and objects, which any 'data producer' can share with others consuming it, describing what is happening around the (learning) world in which the learner is performing." But of course I think it would be unreasonable to expect a single universally-accepted set of standard verbs. Nor is it necessary. " If you are able to standardize and showcase the way you track interactions across different vendors of the value chain, be it with an e-Book or entering into a physical or virtual (class)room, you have a gold mine of opportunity ahead."
