- Logging Format (XSD/DTD)
The PSLC Logging Format, also known as the Tutor Message format, is used to log the details of student and tutor actions. It is defined in an XML Schema Definition (XSD file) and a Document Type Definition (DTD file). Of these two files, the XML Schema is normative and should be used for the purposes of validation.
- Logging Libraries (Flash and Java)
Software libraries with APIs intended to make the logging of tutor messages easy.
- Import File Verification Tool
DataShop can import a tab-delimited text file of transaction data similar to that generated by the DataShop export. While the import process can only be done by DataShop developers, you should first run this tool against your import file to verify that it's valid, and fix any errors it finds.
- XML Validator Tool
DataShop can import xml files of transaction data which conform to the logging standard. While the import process can only be done by DataShop developers, you should first run this tool against your xml files to verify that they are valid xml and comform to the DTD.
