L&D teams are working to strategically plan their data transformation initiatives for 2019. At DevLearn we shared this Data Strategy Worksheet to help organizations look at both the data they already have in their learning ecosystems and evaluate new tools they may add in the future.
The Yet xAPI LRS: Mission control for learning & performance. Visualize all your learning & performance data in real time. Use the analytics dashboard to measure learning activity, resource use, and engagement to show the impact of your learning investment, evaluate the effectiveness of learning resources, and connect your learning initiatives directly to performance outcomes.
Listen in to hear how Amy Parent built the case for xAPI, began a pilot project, and started achieving early wins, gaining results, and created something with shared value across teams in her work at the NeuroLeadership Institute.
From the “101s” to the “how they did its,” check out this xAPI insider's guide to DevLearn for great sessions to consider when designing a data strategy that supports your learners today and prepares your organization for the technologies of tomorrow.

The management of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) says it has no intention to engage any foreign strategic investor in the company’s profitability drive.
According to the acting Managing Director of TOR, Mr Kwame Awuah Darko, the refinery did not need a foreign partner to ensure efficiency of its operations.
In an interview with the Daily Graphic in Tema on Sunday, he indicated that managers of the refinery had found a local solution to the challenges of the company and that the needed capacity was all in place to restore the company to its former glory.
“I am a firm believer that state institutions can work profitably just like any private entity,” he said.
“TOR currently has a success strategy which doesn’t require any foreign partnership,” Mr Awuah-Darko added.
In 2014, the government announced that it was entering into an agreement with Saudi Aramco, also known as Petro Saudi, of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to revive the refinery which had been left in tatters since 2009.
The refinery, however, received a boost and bounced back in January 2016, after it secured a deal to refine crude oil for the Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) Company under a tolling arrangement.
Mr Awuah Darko indicated that the arrangement with Petro Saudi had elapsed legally and officials of TOR were taking legal advice to wash itself of all obligations that tied it to the investor.
He indicated that the joint venture agreement between the government, on behalf of TOR and Petro Saudi had not been operated, since TOR was not able to meet the pre-conditions set by the foreign investor at the time.
He hinted that a new crude oil furnace installed at a cost of $8 million would be commissioned in July to increase the production capacity of the Crude Distillation Unit (CDU) to 60,000, from the present 45,000 processing capacity.
The furnace, which was procured by the previous management from the $30 million capital injection made available by the government in 2010, will enable the CDU to produce some 60,000 per stream day from 2017.
“The idea is to be able to produce quality fuel to meet 50 per cent of the total national consumption and also for export to neighbouring countries,” Mr Awuah Darko added.

Our tutors will assist you in writing essays and other papers for your classes. If you are working on a paper, you should bring your draft and a copy of the writing assignment to your tutoring session. The tutors are not “proof readers,” nor do they guarantee that your grades will improve merely by engaging in a tutoring session. They are, however, trained to assist you in spotting your own errors in your papers and guiding you to write clearly, coherently, and correctly. If you have not begun your writing assignment, our tutors will help you to brainstorm and create a plan for fulfilling the assignment.
No, appointments are not necessary, but you should not wait until the last minute to visit the Writing Center. Sometimes you will find a short wait, but you should study quietly in our study room located behind the tutoring room.
Our hours are Monday-Thursday from 6-10 p.m. and Sunday from 7-9 p.m. These times are also posted on YHC Connect and on signs around campus. We are usually busiest on Wednesday and Thursday nights, but any time big papers are due, the Center is likely to be busy.
Our tutors have regularly assigned tutoring hours. If you would like to see the same tutor, ask for his or her schedule. You are not, however, obligated to see the same tutor each time you need help. In fact, it is helpful to work with more than one tutor as you may build a different, and perhaps better, rapport.
No. The tutors may not have read the book, essay, or article you have been assigned, but their responsibility is to be sure that your response to the reading is clear. In addition, tutors have a synopsis of each book assigned by professors in English classes. You should tell the tutor about your reading assignment, and if you need help understanding a passage, they can assist you.
The Writing Center tutors have had some training in working with students whose first language is not English, and they are always willing to help you in any way they can.
