  1. TECHLEARN COLLABORATIVE UpdateShareable Courseware Object Reference ModelJanuary 2000“Where are we and where are we going?” (Philip V.W. Dodds)

  2. ADL Technical Work Group A Partnership • Industry • DoD • Federal Government • Academia

  3. AICC/IEEE/IMS/ADL

  4. The ADL SCORM – What is it? • A reference model that defines a web-based learning “content model” • A set of interrelated specifications designed to meet DoD’s high level “-ilities” • A process to knit together disparate groups and interests • A bridge from general emerging technologies to commercial implementations …an evolving document to collect all the “bits and pieces” in one place

  5. Web-based Learning Content Issues For starters… • Can’t move a course from one LMS to another • Can’t reuse content “chunks” across different LMS systems • Can’t create searchable content or media repositories across different LMS environments ….etc. These are key enabling capabilities… The ADL SCORM is a first step toward a larger vision

  6. End State • Enable a learning object content-based economy • Enable adaptive, intelligent tutoring capability • Enable large-scale, distributed shareable content repositories • Enable enhanced performance through faster, more economical training

  7. SCORM Scope (today) ADL SCORM’s three major topics: • XML-based Course Structure Format (moving courses from one LMS to another) • Run Time Environment: common communications between content and LMS • Application of Metadata: to courses, content “chunks”, and raw media elements (for searchable libraries/repositories

  8. What We Get (near term) • Small, reusable, discoverable content “chunks” • Discoverable media assets • Ability to find and move courses This is a critical starting point, but there is much, much more to be done!

  9. What Do Work On Next • Release SCORM 1.0 2-1-00 with “SDK” • Convert LMSs (e.g., DAU) to SCORM spec. • Convert Content (e.g., ATSC) to SCORM spec. • Create examples – lots of them; give them away • Work with other institutions/labs to share results • Test out compliance test software as it becomes available • Establish Web Development Center in Co-Lab • Share as much as we can with as many as possible • Build a “repository” of actual code and content

  10. What Should You Do? It’s time to rethink your distance learning strategy • Imagine large repositories of learning content • Imagine dynamic learning management systems that: • Adapt to the needs of the learner on the fly • Provide intelligent tutoring capabilities • Imagine a new knowledge/content based economy • Learning content develops durable market value • Investment in learning content becomes a core strategy …delivering life-long learning is “the next big thing” – and it’s the next big e-commerce business!

  11. What Should You Do? • Start designing content with reuse in mind • Try to design content in small, logical “chunks” • Monitor evolution of key standards • Tell your vendors you want standards-based products • Develop an organizational strategy for adopting distributed learning that match your core competencies • Don’t put off “dealing” with web-based learning or your competition will eat your lunch
