Hi,
I wanted to know if there is a LRS (Learning Record System) Tin Can Api plugin available for Elgg.
Basically, I have some elearning courses that are Tin Can Api compliant and since Elgg does not directly store course/student data, LRS would be required that can function along with Elgg.
So, I wanted to check if there is any such plugin available that can be used.
Would appreciate any support with this.
Thanks,
Ashish

You must log in to post replies.Implementing an LRS within Elgg is possible, but extremely inefficient. TinCan API uses noSQL model, and making it work with MySQL would be a hassle.
Scorm Cloud and other providers offer hosted LRS services. There is also an open source LRS you can install on your server: http://learninglocker.net/
How are you integrating your courses into Elgg? And what exactly are you trying to achieve?
I am now working on some tools that integrate TinCan capabilities into Elgg, but it's an ongoing project and I am not sure when and if the code will be open sourced. I have so far built an API that allows you to send TinCan statements to an LRS. Still testing, but so far I am able to convert most Elgg river items into TinCan statements.
