Full Description

Scope

This Standard describes an ECMAScript application-programming interface (API) for content-to-runtime-services communication. This Standard is based on an API defined in the "CMI Guidelines For Interoperability," version 3.4, defined by the Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC). It defines common API services in the ECMAScript language that enable the communication of information between learning-related content and a runtime service (RTS) used to support learning management. This Standard does not address the data structures that may be transmitted, data security, or communication between an RTS and related management systems.

Purpose

There is widespread acknowledgement that the ECMAScript API for content-to-runtime-services communication defined in the AICC "CMI Guidelines for Interoperability", version 3.4, has broad applicability to systems used for learning management. The purpose of this Standard is to build consensus around, resolve ambiguities, and correct defects in this ECMAScript API for exchanging data between learning-related content and a runtime service used to support learning management.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Active.An ECMAScript application programming interface (API) for content-to-runtime-services communication is described in this standard. It is based on a current industry practice called CMI--computer managed instruction. This API enables the communication of information between content and a runtime service (RTS) typically provided by a learning management system (LMS) via common API services using the ECMAScript language. The purpose of this standard is to build consensus around, resolve ambiguities, and correct defects in existing specifications for an ECMAScript API for exchanging data between learning-related content and an LMS.
