Notes

(cmi5) jsonld - Profile updates

The group continued making corrections and adding scope notes per last meeting's discussions working on the "concepts" array.

One item of particular interest was the "course" Activity type (shown below)

  {
    "id": "https://w3id.org/xapi/cmi5/activitytype/course",
    "inScheme": "https://w3id.org/xapi/cmi5/context/categories/cmi5/v1.0",
    "type": "ActivityType",
    "exactMatch": [ "http://adlnet.gov/expapi/activities/course" ],
    "definition": {
      "en": "A course represents an amount of content that is published and registered into with the purpose of gaining completion.  It is represented with a Course Structure Format in cmi5 as the highest level of content (above Block and AU)."
    },
    "prefLabel": {
      "en": "course"
    },
    "scopeNote" : "This is used in an LMS generated 'Statisfied' statement.  See section 9.3.9 of the cmi5 specification for details on usage."	
  }

which is the only concept in the profile with an "exactMatch" property:

"exactMatch": [ "http://adlnet.gov/expapi/activities/course" ]

This was discussed at some length and it was determined that is used to map the concept of "course" to other profiles but is not consider exactly the same as a cmi5 course which is mapped to an XML structure.

cmi5 Spec Clarification

As result of the cmi5 jsonld the discovered that the definition of "Block" needs further clarification in the cmi5 spec. The following clarification was proposed:

Block: A grouping of AU's and/or other Blocks (nesting).

See current cmi5 jsonld draft
