Description
In collaboration with the National Training and Simulation Association (NTSA), the Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) Initiative is excited to announce iFest 2018. iFest provides unique opportunities for military, government, industry, and academia professionals to share the latest in distributed learning innovations. This year’s theme is Future Learning Ecosystem: Learning data & analytics, interoperability, and learning science.
This year will also include a "Hackathon" which is open to attendees and participating organizations. The goal of the hackathon is to create usable, xAPI-driven dashboards in support of ADL's Total Learning Architecture (TLA). The hackathon will provide a robust corpus of xAPI statements within an LRS. Participants are encouraged to experiment and think "out of the box" to unleash the power of learning analytics.
