We are delighted to say the OpenLabyrinth can now generate xAPI statements and send them to an LRS. We are currently using a GrassBlade LRS because it is nice and simple to work with.
But we have also been successful in sending statements to the SCORM Cloud LRS, hosted by Rustici.
Statements can be sent in real-time. We caution authors against over-use of this because we are not sure how well our poor little server will handle the load for a really complex case.
What is interesting is that we can also generate a post-hoc report after a case is played. Because OpenLabyrinth stores quite detailed activity metrics in its own internal database, it is possible to generate xAPI statements on older cases that were played well before this xAPI functionality was developed. A veritable time machine!
