Joshua Marks, nominated to provide come context about use cases where an issuer wants to claim that a learner has achieved a particular level against a rubric.

I can work with @kayaelle to propose an example JSON for a skill assertion using the data model as it is now, or possibly different options. We should figure out how the URL of the skill is identified in the Result class (in order to validate that the Result class is an appropriate way to do this).

Others have suggested simpler methods (where achievement is binary):

"credentialSubject': {
  "achievement": {"type": "Skill", "description": "not necessarily an instance of the Achievement class"} // reuse achievement property to point to either an Achievement or a "Competency"/"Skill" that may not conform to all rules of Achievement
}

Adding this for reference:

https://rsd.openskillsnetwork.org/

Here's a draft of a single skill assertion we can start looking at:

https://json.link/sKH8ONemZ7

It models the example in the proposal but includes more details about the skill. I wonder if we need more than the id if we are recommending the use of RSDs where the details can be accessed. In this example, the results are included.

CTDL supports 66 properties that can be used at the individual competency/skill level to create RSDs in CTDL-- see CTDL-ASN https://credreg.net/ctdlasn/terms#Competency

Similar to CLR model: https://www.imsglobal.org/sites/default/files/spec/clr/v1p0/InfoModel/clr_InfoModel.html#Data_Result

This is the same result object that would be added to a credentialSubject for a badge achievement

This example is closer to what was in the original proposal:

https://json.link/hZGvuaESnV

It doesn't contain an achievement object at all but instead just the result object aligned to an RSD, no link to a ResultDescription or what level is achieved.

This example includes a result aligned with an RSD and link to ResultDescription with achieved level:

https://json.link/7v1VXKy063

For next meeting, discuss:

"resultDescription": "urn:uuid:da72e42e-9f38-4c42-83ac-33f6cb9bb3b1",
"achievedLevel": "urn:uuid:f256d3a9-c117-43bf-9e25-dc69691e18a1"

Should we mock this with RSD object?

Nate volunteered to flesh out an example and PR.

Here's a full example, followed by some discussion questions.

Decision points:

• type: Do we want to use a different type for this or just continue using the AchievementCredential/OpenBadgesCredential type? I recommend continuing to use the same, because it allows better composability of skills results and achievement results into a single credential.
• Result.alignment.targetType: What types would we want to support here? It is useful potentially to hint the user at what they would expect, and if they should attempt to fetch the URL to get more information, such as if that supports achievement levels/rubric.
• Result.achievedLevel: should we support this when there isn't an embedded ResultDescription in the credential that would hold the possible levels?

Group: continue using the AchievementCredential

Implement skill assertions without Result.achievedLevel for now. May return to it later.

There is a PR #450 for review.
