Privacy

UX + LX is built to help LX Designers incorporate UX into their work.

We built the app to be practical, minimal, micro-learning that you could pick up whenever you had a few minutes. As part of our learning experience design, we also use xAPI to track your participation in the lessons.


Our privacy policy explains:

About xAPI

This app collects participation information using xAPI. xAPI is an open specification that supports data interoperability. An xAPI statement from the app might look like this:

  const videoTinCan = new TinCan.Statement({
  "actor": {
    name: self.userName, // your user name from your login
    mbox: self.userEmail,// your email from your login
  },
  "verb": {
     id: "http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/play",
     display: {'en-US': 'played'} // what activity you engaged in; in this case, playing a video
  },
  "object": {
     id: videoUrl,
     definition: {
        name: { "en-US": videoTitle }, // the object you interacted with; in this case, the video you played
     }
  },
  "context": { // other information, such as which lesson the video was located in and who wrote the lesson
    "contextActivities": {
      "parent": {
        "id": "http://www.lxresearch.info/app/ux-lx-app/" + self.lessonNum
      },
    },
    "extensions": {
      "http://www.lxresearch.info/app/ux-lx-app/extension/author": {
        "name": self.authorName,
        "mbox": "mailto:" + self.authorEmail
      },
    }
  },
});
