Tin Can API
The Tin Can API, now officially known as "Experience API" (xAPI), is an e-learning software specification that allows learning content and learning systems to speak to each other in a manner that records and tracks all types of learning experiences.[1] Learning experiences are recorded in a Learning Record Store (LRS). LRSs can exist within traditional Learning Management Systems (LMSs) or on their own.[2] Summary[edit] The Tin Can API is commonly referred to as "The Experience API" and "Next Generation SCORM."

- Cheryl J. Hamel, University of Central Florida - David Ryan-Jones, Joint ADL Co-Laboratory A new trend is shaping the future of educational technology. In the new e-learning economy, buyers and sellers in education and training markets are economically motivated to pursue global commerce opportunities involved in distributed learning over the Internet. International working groups, such as the Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC), the Instructional Management Systems Global Learning Consortium (IMS), and the Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineers (IEEE), are developing standards for web- and computer-based courseware architecture and packaging. Software standards for digital media and instruction are intended to ensure that courseware will be developed, organized, and distributed in a uniform manner. One concept underlying the evolving courseware standards is that the same instructional content may be usable in different instructional contexts. What Are Learning Objects?

Editor’s Note: Learning objects make it unnecessary to have thousands of iterations of the same teaching point. Metadata makes it possible to select and integrate relevant learning experiences from a relatively small library of learning objects. Reusable learning objects permit lessons to be generated and customized for specific groups or even for individuals. Extensive research and development has led to a vocabulary of specialized terms to define learning objects. Rory McGreal Learning objects (LOs) enable and facilitate the use of educational content online. Learning Object Repositories (LORs) that are being created house the LOs providing seamless access to a vast store of learning resources such as animations, videos, simulations, educational games, and multimedia texts in the same way that Napster and IPod users have access to music files. LOs are sometimes defined as being educational resources that can be employed in technology-supported learning. This terminology includes:
