| | The up-to-date list of tools for creating SCORM content is available in the latest Moodle Docs wiki: [[:en:Creating SCORM Content|Creating SCORM Content]]. |
| | |
| ==Creating SCORM Content==
| |
| Moodle '''does not''' generate scorm content. Moodle presents the content in SCORM packages to learners, and saves data from learner interactions with the SCORM package.
| |
| | |
| Some people hand-code SCORM objects using HTML, JavaScript, and sometimes SWF files. There are some templates provided by ADL and by others, which make this process easier.
| |
| | |
| Others use SCORM authoring software to generate SCORM packages. This process is easier for non-technical users, but not as foolproof.
| |
| | |
| ==Find existing SCORM packages==
| |
| You can find SCORM packages on [http://moodle.net/mod/data/view.php?d=1&mode=list&perpage=10&search=&sort=0&order=DESC&advanced=0&filter=1&advanced=1&f_2=SCORM+package&f_11=&f_13=&f_12=&f_9=&f_8= Moodle.net] Please feel free to add yours to the database.
| |
| | |
| ==Before Investing in SCORM Authoring Software==
| |
| Please be aware that vendors can edit entries on this wiki page. No SCORM authoring software is without bugs, and some have significant issues when used with Moodle. Just because products are listed on this page does not mean that Moodle.org either supports or endorses them. Be sure to test all products extensively before purchase, and be sure that the built-in Moodle authoring tools will not meet your needs. Also take the time to search for past issues with a particular product in the Using Moodle SCORM forum, and read the rest of the Moodle SCORM documentation.
| |
| | |
| Many of these products piggyback on Powerpoint®, or present talking head video to a learner. Powerpoint presentations and talking heads do not promote social learning. It is valuable to consider, before embarking upon SCORM development, whether your organization wants to limit itself to the pedagogical approaches provided by the SCORM API.
| |
| | |
| It is also important to know that one does not need to purchase or obtain any product in order to produce SCORM content. SCORM content is a collection of HTML, JavaScript, and multimedia files, all of which can be produced by regular humans. Humans are, in addition, capable of testing your content in your LMS and writing code which addresses the nuances of your LMS, a valuable service which authorware does not provide.
| |
| | |
| In addition, an authorware production model, in which non-programmers produce content using graphical user interfaces, can present issues because non-programmers do not understand some of the basic tenets of the Web. It is a good idea to educate authorware users about best practices with regard to issues such as file size, file naming conventions, how to publish images for the Web, and so forth, before turning them loose with an authorware product.
| |
| | |
| ==Tools for Authoring==
| |
| Here is a list of tools to create SCORM packages, both open source and commercial. Moodle is a modular authoring tool for courses but at this time does not create SCORM packages.
| |
| | |
| ==Creating Reusable Content in SCORM 2004 Video Webinar==
| |
| | |
| This is the perfect video webinar for instructional designers who need to start developing e-learning content for use in a SCORM 2004-compliant LMS. Available when you need and where you need it, this webinar will give you a basic understanding of how to start developing reusable content. While intended for a SCORM 2004 audience, many of the considerations for re-use can be utilized by SCORM 1.2 developers.

| * Part 3: Data Model Elements

| You are advise to watch the above videos on ADL's [http://www.adlnet.gov/creating-reusable-content-in-scorm-2004-video-webinar SCORM 2004 Video Webinar] wesite.
| |
| | |
| ==Free OpenSource==
| |
| === eXe OPEN SOURCE SCORM Development Package ===
| |
| The eXe project is developing a freely available Open Source authoring application to assist teachers and academics in the publishing of web content without the need to become proficient in HTML or XML markup. Resources authored in eXe can be exported in IMS Content Package, SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004 or IMS Common Cartridge formats or as simple self-contained web pages.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| === Xerte OPEN SOURCE SCORM Development Package ===
| |
| The Xerte Project provides a full suite of open source tools for elearning developers and content authors producing interactive learning materials.
| |
| | |
| Standalone tool: Xerte http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/

| Online tool: Toolkits http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/toolkits.aspx

| ==Freeware not OpenSource==
| |
| === Courselab ===
| |
| CourseLab is a free program but is not open source. Feb 2009 current version is 2.4. Received an eLearnings Best of 2007 award.
| |
| | |
| CourseLab version 2.4 has a few bugs. First is with audio. Sometimes (for some reason not known to CourseLab) the audio will restart, creating an echo effect. You will need to un-check the "autostart" mark of the Video object (vidoe object is used to insert audio too)and then define an action on some event that fits the case (for example on the slide's afterdisplay event) choose METHOD (yourvideoobject, PLAY. this will play the audio after the slide is displayed.
| |
| | |
| Another issue is with FireFox browsers displaying graphics with CourseLab. It is stated in user's manual that some objects utilize Explorer-specific features and author should avoid using them, if he wants to use the course in multi-browser environment. These are: Gradient Box and all AutoShapes. AutoShapes are VML-objects and VML (Vector Markup Language) is not supported by FireFox. SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics - another vector format) could be the good alternative, but there are still problems with displaying inline SVG-objects in both Gecko-family and IE. (from CourseLab Support)
| |
| | |
| If these FireFox/Image display problems are not an issue then be sure to install the latest browser plug-ins. If you present content to non-IE users, do not use this authoring package.
| |
| | |
| There are some problems with Moodle configuration see http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=96338#p425335

(The courses can also be hosted on the udutu site, either for free but with a watermark or for a fee) Quite intuitive to use and offering many features, it is however dependent on good connection to the site as it is created online. Also doesn't seem to like working in Opera.
| |
| | |
| === Reload ===

| Reusable eLearning Object Authoring and Delivery - NB it is rather technical and may only be suitable for those with an understanding of HTML and the underlying SCORM specification.

| |
| | |
| http://www.reload.ac.uk/

Adobe have a page on Captivate here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/captivate/] - the latest version is Captivate 7.0.
| |
| | |
| One difficulty with Captivate is that it tends to save important reporting values to a string in suspend_data, rather than in lesson_status, lesson_location, and the like. This makes it more difficult to write custom reports, or to debug interactions.
