Packaging Standards SCORM and IMS Common Cartridge – The Users Point of View

This paper reports on an exploratory study analyzing the Educational Resources’ packaging standards SCORM and IMS Common Cartridge’s (CC) regarding interoperability from the point of view of key users: teachers. The two specifications SCORM and CC to package Educational Resources have been developed to help the users to re-use Learning Objects from Learning Object Repositories (LORs) in Learning Management Systems (LMS) of schools. In our study, we found that teachers find packaging solutions highly useful, especially the interoperability between LORs and LMSs. Teachers also appreciated that they can modify packaged content after it has been uploaded to the LMS. The teachers also strongly appreciated the additional functionalities of CC packages while teaching courses online or giving home work/extra assignments to their students.
