1EdTech Glossary

this 1EdTech standard defines a method for representing the intended behavior of an authored learning experience such that any learning technology system can sequence discrete learning activities in a consistent way. The standard defines the required behaviors and functionality that conforming systems must implement. It incorporates rules that describe the branching or flow of instruction through content according to the outcomes of a learner's interactions with content. This standard was released to the public in March 2003 and is used to provide a functional extension to a 1EdTech Content Package. It is one of the keystone standards in the Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM).

Another word for interoperability standards. We use the word "specification" when the text can get confusing between "Academic Standards" and technical standards.

The abbreviation for a student information system. 

A student information system (SIS) is a management information system used by educational institutions to manage student data. Student information systems provide capabilities for registering students in courses, classes, modules and programs (through rostering); documenting grading (through gradebooks), learner records, results of student tests and other assessment scores; building student schedules; tracking student attendance; and managing many different student-related data needs in the institution. In institutions with one or more learning management systems (LMS), there is a significant amount of information exchanged between the SIS and the LMS.

The 1EdTech standards OneRoster and Learning Information Services can be used to support such systems. 

the Student Learning Data Model provides a complete view of a digital ecosystem interconnected with real-time data. 1EdTech ecosystem standards fuel the analytics needed to guide your digital transformation now and into the future.

one of the Metric Profiles defined in the 1EdTech Caliper Standard. The Caliper Survey Profile provides a vocabulary for describing events associated with a respondent's participation in online surveys. A key use case involves instrumenting platforms that offer online surveys that explore the student learning experience, student engagement, learning activities, learning progress, and learning performance. The profile models a person–typically a respondent or a rater—participating in a survey in order to provide feedback on their learning and academic experiences.
