SCORM Content Structure

Content Structure defines a mechanism for aggregating learning resources into cohesive units of instruction and enabling the intended structure and behaviors of the content to be reproduced across various learning management systems.

 

To achieve this, the SCORM provides
the following mechanisms:

  • Content Hierarchy – Defines a hierarchical representation for grouping learning resources into a logical order.

  • Context Specific Meta-data – Meta-data that describes how a learning resource is to be used in a specific collection or context.

  • Sequencing and Navigation – Information for the learning management system (LMS) telling it what to present to a learner, in what order and what navigation choices to offer.
