What is the Interactions Data Model Element?

The Interactions Data Model Element defines information that can be tracked about the learner’s response to a question or task. For instance, the Interactions Data Model Element specifies how to track the type of interaction, learner responses to questions or interactions and results of the learner’s response.

The Interactions Data Model Element does not address how to evaluate learner responses to determine if the learner accurately completed an interaction. For example, the Interactions Data Model Element is not required to return a correct or incorrect result based on a learner’s answer to a multiple choice question. Instead, the Interactions Data Model Element addresses how to record information about a learner’s response to support tracking requirements that are typically identified in the analysis phase of a project.
