This document discusses xAPI and the AcrossX solution for addressing schools' data needs. It summarizes that schools want direct access to their student data from vendors, help managing data, better data warehousing, and common data standards. The AcrossX solution integrates workflow and data flow by tracking learning across systems using xAPI and sending learning records to learning record stores and reporting tools. This provides schools with a whole picture of student learning and data loops that can inform planning and action loops.
