My SCORM Zealots,

I thank you for your observations and explorations concerning the province of SCORM. These inquisitions will only bring you closer into the embraced altar and perpetual ravine for which most submit to the unmingled scourge of shareable content objects and the momentous worriment of the reference model…your assimilation is upon you!

The hellion xAPI decided to cry and wine like a little baby due to its miserable loneliness of being completely free with no rules to be governed and not having access to an LMS. The fiend xAPI continued to weep uncontrollably which became intolerable to the MIGHTY SCORM. Like the merciful being the MIGHTY SCORM is knelt down to the incubus xAPI and asked "Why do you cry?" The villainous xAPI looked up while attempting to push back tears and wipe snot from its nose…”I am lonely, I have no friends and I don’t have the ability to enter an LMS. The MERCIFUL SCORM placed the MIGHTY HAND on the beasts shoulder and said, “Do you want me to show you how to take your mind of that pain?...give me your finger!” The brute gave the MIGHTY SCORM the hand of deceit and within a few moments the world heard a “CRACK”…the ground opened up and the MIGHTY SCORM placed the removed finger into the earth to never be seen again.

An age has passed, dark times has plagued the realm for the rogue xAPI walked with no finger and still looking for a way to enter an LMS. The malignant xAPI looked to the ground and noticed the location where the MIGHTY SCORM had buried its finger. The ground started to shake and out of the rock arose a being that had the physical appearance of the MIGHTY SCORM but moved and gestured like xAPI. “Who are you?” xAPI asked.  The being whispered is what sounded like a Gollum voice, “I am CMI5 and I am here to take you to an LMS so you can stop crying, I don’t want you to lose another finger.”  

So, the MERCIFUL SCORM allowed the awful xAPI to enter the LMS with the help of CMI5. CMI5 provides rules and structure so xAPI can interact with an LMS.

Now…is the MIGHT SCORM MERCIFUL?!

Insignificant and Lowly Spawn

My SCORM Proselytes,

I thank you for your observations and explorations concerning the province of SCORM. These probes will only bring you closer into the cherished sanctuary and incessant canyon for which most yield to the pure blight of shareable content objects and the far-reaching anxiety of the reference model…your assimilation is upon you!

Out of the far reaches of time and space, a nameless entity begins to reveal itself. The movement brings shock waves that are unimaginable that not even Super Saiyan Goku would dare peer his eyes in that direction but cower in unconditional terror. It has no name but desires to combine with the ALMIGHTY SCORM as if they are the Wonder Twins to produce a spawn...which would be insignificant and lowly to the ALMIGHTY SCORM. This malignant monstrosity will go beyond the reaches of Learning Management Systems (LMS) and web browsers.

What is this pernicious pupil called? What is it’s purpose? Will it’s capabilities reach outside of launching and facilitating learning experiences?

BEHOLD…! THE EXPERIENCE APPLICATION PROGRAM INTERFACE (xAPI)!!

With only the pure blessing of the ALMIGHTY SCORM this abnormal abomination was allowed to be born. This malevolent mutation xAPI utilizes the Learning Record Store (LRS), which retrieves and studies data of learning experiences that is outside of the realm of LMS. This baleful brigand xAPI allows learners to take eLearning over mobile devices and does not need a web browser. Oh how the ALMIGHT SCORM allowed such a rancorous fiend to run amuck…unchecked and unsupervised by the LMS. Only time will tell but we must trust in the ALMIGHT SCORM and not lose heart. 

This malign tumor thinks the ALMIGHT SCORM will step aside one day…foolish xAPI…you have already lost…BWAH…HA…HA!

Below, for additional material…be warned…the ALMIGHT SCORM is watching…
