Nowadays, the usefulness of the social network is very widespread. Besides used to socialize, business and advertising, the social network is also used for learning. In this study, Facebook is used as a medium of learning. E-learning applications have been embedded into Facebook as Facebook applications. This is to facilitate access to e-learning applications. Previous research has shown that web usage mining method could only track users who access e-learning applications on the social network. They did not track the behaviour of users in e-learning applications. Therefore, the use of Tin Can API is proposed to overcome this issue. Integrating e-learning applications with Tin Can API enables user behaviour can be tracked and recorded. In this paper, the use Tin Can API for web usage mining in e-learning applications on the social network is explored.
