Abstract

Mobile technology use is continually increasing, making it possible for us to connect to both information and other people in remarkable ways. This paper discusses how mobile technologies can support both formal and informal learning in instructor-led training (ILT), web-based training (WBT), blended learning experiences, and on-the-job performance support. It also addresses global trends in mobile technology use, and presents examples of novel applications of mobile learning. Finally, it provides a technical overview of xAPI and cmi5 and examines how these technologies can be used to capture the entire spectrum of learning, from formal to informal.

We are thrilled that RISC President, Art Werkenthin, was invited to contribute his expertise on xAPI and cmi5 for the white paper.
