After a brief introduction to xAPI and what's new about it from the instructional design side, this session will discuss three key areas that impact instructional design: identifying learning data needs, data sources, and meaningful visualizations that answer organizational and L&D questions; making choices about infrastructure---how and when to work with your LMS, your LRS, or both; and models for taking advantage of xAPI across a variety of learning vectors---formal and informal, social and private, formative and summative, predictable and variable. This session was recorded at the ATD 2019 TechKnowledge conference in West Palm Beach, Florida.
