Learning Object Standards

SCORM, the Sharable Content Object Reference Model, is a technical specification that governs how

online training (or "e-learning") is created and delivered to learners. It is a collection of standards and

specifications adapted from multiple sources to provide a comprehensive suite of e-learning capabilities

that enable interoperability, accessibility and reusability of Web-based learning content. Supported by

the Advanced Distributed Learning initiativehttp://www.adlnet.gov/scorm/index.aspx

Learning Object Metadata. A set of metadata standards developed by IEEE to assist with the discovery

and interoperability of learning objects. The types of metadata attributes required by this standard for

learning objects include: type of object; author; owner; terms of distribution; format; and pedagogical

attributes, such as teaching or interaction style.
