Abstract

Learning Analytics is an emerging field focused on analyzing learners’ interactions with educational content. One of the key open issues in learning analytics is the standardization of the data collected. This is a particularly challenging issue in online laboratories. This paper presents an implementation with one of the most promising specifications: Experience API (xAPI). The Experience API relies on Communities of Practice developing profiles that cover different use cases in specific domains. This paper presents the Online Laboratories xAPI Profile: a profile developed to align with the most common use cases in the online laboratories domain. The profile is applied to a case study (a windmill lab), which explores the technical practicalities of standardizing data acquisition. In summary, the paper presents a framework to track online laboratories and their implementation with the xAPI specification.
