In this study, a SCORM-compliant ubiquitous learning grid was constructed by using the grid services technologies combined with CC/PP. The purpose was to let anyone access any information at anyplace, anytime, by any device to learn. Several SCORM-compliant learning management systems collaborated by Globus Toolkit 3.2 grid engine and CC/PP were implemented to provide a content adaptive environ...

E-learning platforms can be evaluated using multiple criteria and methods. This situation requires the elaboration of frameworks and models to drive such evaluation. There are some frameworks addressed to systematize the evaluation of e-learning platforms. However, a general problem in these evaluation frameworks is the lack of “benchmarks” to provide a formal reference in the analysis and comp...

This paper reports on an exploratory study analyzing the Educational Resources’ packaging standards SCORM and IMS Common Cartridge’s (CC) regarding interoperability from the point of view of key users: teachers. The two specifications SCORM and CC to package Educational Resources have been developed to help the users to re-use Learning Objects from Learning Object Repositories (LORs) in Learnin...

One of the characteristics of e-learning is that students can acquire knowledge in different ways or with different learning paths, also called sequencing models. These sequencing patterns can be predefined by an expert from the type of learner or may be adaptive to the specific situation of each student. This paper analyzes the SCORM sequencing and navigation model for the dynamic presentation...

The first decade of the twenty first century is witnessing the convergence of three strands of development in e-learning which had relatively independent origins during the 1990s. The first strand is rise of e-learning technology as a recognized industry. This was fostered by the rise of the Internet and the widespread adoption of e-learning software and courses, especially Learning Management ...
