@Quitterie Lucas very important to use existing extensions and when necessary we should propose a reusable extensions for the entire community to use.
@Julien Maupetit why is the approach to keep all the data that is currently in the events? Typically we should resolve the details via links.
@Zia Fazal What is the downside to adding an extension for new data like?
@Julien Maupetit We should favor lean first and only add data that does a job.
@Dave Ormsbee (Axim) points out that randomization of questions may require that provide the literal questions presented to learners because it would not be practical to reconstruct later – maybe not even possible.
@Julien Maupetit Can we make fields optional to drop data that isn’t required.
@Andy Shultz (Deactivated) Debugging the stream
Having encoded fields make it hard for humans.
However, having full access to the data is useful
Even if we avoid putting the question, we will still need to record long free-text answers.
@Edward Zarecor How do other systems like Moodle handle, say, configurability of xAPI events
@Zia Fazal Can you we agree about an xAPI profile that is widely used and choose it.
Profiles and extensions are community driven, there isn’t a clear way to determining that one is preferable today. Adoption would be a determining factor, but it’s hard to measure currently
@Quitterie Lucas why not define our own Open edX specific profile rather than mapping?
A lot of vocabulary is missing on ADLNet
Would it be beneficial for the Open edX community to contribute to the xAPI community.
Would it be a plus for us to define a profile
Video profile for example, specifies one specific activity type more specifically.
@Julien Maupetit if we want to push forward with customized profiles we would need to have a real working sessions.
@Jill Vogel worries that we cannot specify in advance what everyone needs and we will end up not getting anything done.
@Julien Maupetit we shouldn’t need to specify everything in advance, but collaborating with the GaiaX group would prevent unnecessary divergence and duplicated effort.
@Jill Vogel We can have multiple versions, and add features as we go, but we should have use cases that drive what is included, not simply do this a a reverse engineering exercise.
@Julien Maupetit perhaps 1 Open edX event would be converted into multiple xAPI event, for example.
@Edward Zarecor should we start by gathering use cases from hint users to see if this feature is valuable enough now to care about?
@Dave Ormsbee (Axim) Looks like choice hints legacy is in part from LonCAPA
