WEEK 2 READING 7: ADL/STANDARDS/SCORM
The primary purpose of Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) is to harness the power of technology to deliver and distribute education and training (ADL vision). ADL is responsible for the creation and development of the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) initiative, which would allow for Learning Management Systems (LMS) to be used interchangeably without proprietary constraints. The main function of SCORM content is that it has the ability to be used within a variety of systems in order to recognize students and relay their success and mastery of a certain subject or topic (Basic SCORM concepts, 2008). Provided that the LMS is SCORM conformant, the SCORM is interchangeable across a variety of platforms, which leads to the reusability of the original content.
My Comment:
I too find ADL/SCORM very interesting and I enjoyed reading your paragraph on FLVS. Virtual Microscope labs? How cool is that? I like the fact that in addition to homework assignments the platform offers interactive games to aid in comprehension of each lesson. Sounds like FLVS has a good thing going!
