STANDARDS IN E-LEARNING. SCORM

2021 
The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked interest in e-learning. In the days before the pandemic, it was seen as an opportunity, and today it is seen as an inevitability. Our tasks now are not just to prove its applicability, but to look for methods that will get the most out of electronic and distance forms of training. The most frequently emphasized advantages of e-learning and its distance variation are accessibility, reusability, flexibility, interactivity, openness, personalization, economy and others. These advantages of e-learning over classical face-to-face education are possible thanks to the application of interoperability standards. This paper discusses the SCORM standard, which is the most commonly used one in e-learning.Methodology: A review of literary sources was made: articles in peer-reviewed journals, official websites of standardizing institutions, monographs.Results: SCORM is the most popular standard today. It is essentially a reference model for describing a learning object. This model does not refer to the pedagogical aspect of learning, it defines the way of communication between the learning content and the e-learning system. The latest edition is SCORM 2004. Developed by ADL - Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative. SCORM combines three specifications:1. Content packaging.2. Run-Time Environment3. Sequencing and NavigationSCORM compliant learning content is created by using special development software.Conclusion: The creation of standardized learning content facilitates the transfer of learning units in different courses and platforms and makes it possible to build repositories of learning objects. The SCORM standard is imposed due to its advantages:• All popular learning content management systems are SCORM compliant;• Packages are easily created through special programs, no specific technical knowledge is required;• Provides personalized training by assigning different organizations to resources and activities.
