The New Learning Experience
A new approach to education that fosters better engagement, interaction and quality learning through the delivery of leading-edge technology, services and data capabilities
A focus on the learner
Connected and tightly integrated workflows
A delightful new user experience
Integrated data and analytics
An accessible and always-onenvironment

The Challenge
Lots of DataCurrently
accessible only through Kaltura
![Page 6: Deep Caliper Event Integration, Blackboard Learn and Kaltura Video Platform](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070519/58eff21c1a28ab98538b466b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Goal
Integrated insights for teachers into what students are doing across tools and experiences
Usage data first, progress data to come

Caliper Learning Analytics
• IMS Global as an organization
• Interoperability Standards – LTI, LIS, Common Cartridge, Extended Transcript, Caliper
• Create a viable tool ecosystem for .edu that avoids vendor lock-in
• LTI focuses on launch semantics and SSO, includes grade post-backs
• Caliper focuses on learning event interoperability, to get away from the data silo problem

Project Goals
Overall Goal: prove out event interoperability between a launch system and a tool provider.
Leverage existing event instrumentation (native or Caliper) in both systems
Send instrumented events from the tool provider, including metric profile events not “known” to the launch system
Leverage existing integration mechanics between systems, including LTI
Extend the LTI launch handshake in the existing B2 securely to include Caliper semantics
Leverage existing event capabilities in the launch system
Integrate events correctly alongside “native” events in the launch system Use the launch system as (interim or final) Caliper LRS

Development Process
Lightweight internal milestone deliverables (by month or quarter) – best fit with mainline dev schedules on both sides
DevOps coordination of Test/Dev systems for integration testing
Periodic check-in status meetings & email threads for real work

Spec maturity and workarounds
Caliper’s third actor – the Learning Record Store is neither a tool consumer nor a tool provider, but could have capabilities of either/bothComplicates relays between potential event “receivers”Preserving identifiers from the launch system is not mandated
Object life cycles on the launch system and the tool could impact the record storeEvent payload size and the describe operationGroup membership and contextual relevance

Demonstration

Today and Future - Kaltura
Today: Media Metric Profile
Next: Assessment Metric Profile
Other parameters
![Page 13: Deep Caliper Event Integration, Blackboard Learn and Kaltura Video Platform](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070519/58eff21c1a28ab98538b466b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Today and Future - Blackboard
Today: Caliper event collection & relayNext: Enterprise Learn deployment support, Discussion profileNext next: xAPI support
![Page 14: Deep Caliper Event Integration, Blackboard Learn and Kaltura Video Platform](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070519/58eff21c1a28ab98538b466b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
xAPI & the future
There is a similar specification in the world of SCORM – Blackboard is working with both IMS & ADL to drive towards a convergence that we hope will make it easier on everyone in the ecosystem.
Other goals for Blackboard & Caliper
• Support for Caliper 1.1 Discussion profiles
• Certification as a record store when that is available
• Convergence or “ambidexterity”• Support for 9.1 Enterprise releases

Key Takeaways
Co-development against the spec for systems already instrumented for events is largely enabling the correct handshake and mapping/ transforming event syntax
Metric profiles and object extensions provide a great mechanism to support workarounds to enable success between any two systems
The context identifiers matter, and are not uniform across system boundaries
Some level of interoperability between Caliper & xAPI is highly desirable to avoid competing event ecosystems, but which actor’s responsibility is it?
