The SCORM Content Aggregation Model
The SCORM Content Aggregation Model represents a means for designers and implementers of instruction to aggregate learning resources for the purpose of delivering a desired learning experience.
A learning resource is any representation of information that is used in a learning experience.
Learning experiences consist of activities that are supported by electronic or non-electronic learning resources.
The SCORM Content Aggregation Model is made up of the following:
· Content Model: Nomenclature defining the content components of a learning experience.
· Meta-data: A mechanism for describing specific instances of the components of the content model.
· Content Packaging: Defines how to represent the intended behavior of a learning experience (Content Structure) and how to package learning resources for movement between different environments (Content Packaging).
