xAPI is a specification for tracking learning experiences and performance in a standardized way. It allows for more detailed data about learning experiences compared to SCORM. This document provides an introduction to xAPI for instructional designers, including what xAPI is, how to send xAPI data from authoring tools or custom code, what types of data to send, where to store the data in a learning record store, and ways to keep the data organized. It also discusses using xAPI data for evaluation, dashboards, personalization, and triggering actions. The presenter provides resources for learning more about xAPI and getting started with implementation.
