Sequencing and Navigation: Descriptions and requirements for defining sequencing and navigation information.Metadata: Descriptions and requirements for describing SCORM® components As an extention of IMS Content Packaging, SCORM 1.2 defines an e-learning standard that provides functionalities for contents (and user interactions upon).The manifest is an XML file that completely describes the content. Content Packaging: Descriptions and requirements for aggregating and bundling learning content The heart of the SCORM content packaging specification is the courses manifest file.Content Model: Definition of common terminology used throughout the CAM book.General subjects discussed include the following: This consistency facilitates search and discovery of content packages and their resources (helping facilitate reuse of SCORM® conformant content), building of content organizations that will behave in a similar manner from system to system and standard understanding of the contents of the content package. SCORM® Content Packaging, as described in ISO/IEC TR 29163-2:2009, provides a consistent form for describing content structures, learning content, the metadata that describes the various components of the content structures and sequencing and navigation rules. It contains information on creating content packages, applying metadata to the components in the content package and applying sequencing and navigation details in the context of a content package. ISO/IEC TR 29163-2:2009 describes responsibilities and requirements for building content and content organizations (e.g., course, lessons, modules, etc.). The package is a particular file with zip (or pif) extension that contains valid AICC or SCORM course definition files. ISO/IEC TR 29163-2:2009 promotes the consistent storage, labeling, packaging, exchange and discovery of learning content. Within the context of the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM®), ISO/IEC TR 29163-2:2009 describes the components used in a learning experience, how to package those components for exchange from system to system, how to describe those components to enable search and discovery and how to define sequencing information for the components.
