Simplifying serious games and analytics deployment in a virtual campus using LTI and xAPI

Abstract

Effective deployment of Serious Games into the classroom is a challenging task that adds extra administrative burden to educators and researchers, hindering the generalization of the use of games in the class. This paper presents how elearning standards such as IMS LTI and xAPI specifications can be used to simplify this deployment. This approach has been tested in the context of the Erasmus+ project IMPRESS, using serious games to teach software engineering.
