SCORM

SCORM, which stands for Sharable Content Object Reference Model, is a set of technical standards used in e-learning and online education. SCORM enables interoperability between different learning management systems (LMS) and e-learning content, ensuring that content created in one system can be used in another without compatibility issues.

SCORM-compliant content is designed to be portable and reusable, allowing educational institutions and organizations to create, share, and deliver e-learning materials across various platforms and devices.

The SCORM standard defines how e-learning content communicates with an LMS, tracking learners' progress, completion status, and assessment results. It ensures that learners' data is stored consistently and can be retrieved uniformly across different systems.

SCORM has been widely adopted in the e-learning industry, enabling seamless integration and content exchange between various e-learning platforms and tools.
