Some aspects regarding the design of learning units using e-learning editors in the SCORM standard

Abstract

The organization of higher education programs in distance education technology involves, as a major factor in
the preparation of students, the Internet as a bridge between the participants in the educational process,
supplying weekly attendance of students in the teaching of the classical training.The Internet has become the
support of remote contact (online or offline) between students and professors. From a procedural perspective,
implemented communication and information modules on the Internet are software made under a painstaking
process of documentation, using advanced technology offered by programming languages, database
management systems, and multimedia products.One difficulty in treating the concept of e-Learning is related to the heterogeneity of models and concepts that should be considered.Sharable Content Object Reference Model(SCORM) is a collection of standards and specifications for computer training (e-learning). This collection of standards is defined by the Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL), an organization under the US Department of Defense.Specifically,SCORM governs the way of learning.Consequently we will treat some aspects concerning
certain specialized editors for writing educational content in SCORM format for subsequent implementation of
an e-learning platform that supports this format.
