For most of us who are not programmers, getting our data into xAPI format is the biggest barrier to entry when it comes to getting started with xAPI, making it hard to move forward, let alone help others see how powerful interoperable data can be! At Yet Analytics we recently released a free solution to help our community remove this roadblock.
The Yet Adapter allows non-technical users an easy way to upload spreadsheet data and transform it into xAPI data which can be sent to any Learning Record Store. The presentation was originally given as a webinar on May 23, 2018. See the full webinar with product walkthrough at https://youtu.be/IFSACVPClfI

3. Experience data is a combination of
activity, learning, behavior, and
performance data.
By unifying data from across
organizational data sources, insights
into engagement, learning
effectiveness, information use, and
team behaviors can be identified and
applied to improve business
outcomes.
Yet Analytics turns this experience
data into experience intelligence.

4. How is Experience Data Captured?
Stacey Completed Course #1
Actor Verb Object
Experience Data is captured
using the Experience API
(xAPI), a standardized Actor
— Verb — Object data
format.
This interoperable data
structure allows you to
activate information across
tools and technologies
where Experience Data is
created in real-time.

5. Because xAPI is designed around
activity-based data collection, xAPI
data can provide high-resolution
insights into specific learner activity.
For example, watching a video is
actually a summation of many,
much more granular, actions. This
information can show us how
engaging or valuable an experience
is for a learner.

Kokea team, but what about an in-
person training?
Can you collect that data in our LRS

Some of our Kokea team attended a
required in-person training for new
managers. We have a list of names
and emails from our instructor, let’s
put that data in our LRS as well...
