E-Learning Standards and SCORM® Compliance

The Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL) was launched in November 1997 to support the development of dynamic and cost-effective learning software and systems. ADL's primary accomplishment has been the development of the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM). The purpose of SCORM is to "foster the creation of reusable learning content as 'instructional objects' within a common technical framework for computer-based and Web-based learning." SCORM describes that technical framework by providing a harmonized set of guidelines, specifications and standards. You can find out more about ADL and SCORM at http://www.adlnet.gov.

All online lesssons and learning activities included are available for download packaged as SCORM-compliant files in the Online Lesson and Activities Index.

The SCORM format packaged online lessons and activities, allow you to use Play It Safe With Your Eyes content in any course management system that supports SCORM. Additionally, the SCORM standards allow your content to work automatically with specific components of your course management system (for example the gradebook), and to track whether a student has completed a lesson.
