what's SCORM and how to use it in Tin Can API?


I am new to the SCORM and Tin Can API. Can anyone explain me what's SCORM. how to generate statement with the SCORM cloud credentials.

Thanks in advance...


Solution

  • Your first question is a bit vague. There are plenty of docs on the web that cover the basics of SCORM and Tin Can (now called the Experience API or xAPI). You could start here: http://tincanapi.com/overview/

    If you are trying to figure out how to save Tin Can statements to the SCORM Cloud, I suggest you take a look at the ADL's xAPI wrapper: https://github.com/adlnet/xAPIWrapper.

    You should be able to get up and running quickly by changing the following credentials in the example.html page.

    ADL.XAPIWrapper.changeConfig({
      'endpoint': 'https://cloud.scorm.com/tc/YOUR_LRS_ENDPOINT_HERE/',
      'user': 'YOUR_USERNAME_HERE',
      'password': 'YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE'
    });
