Information technology — Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM®) 2004 3rd Edition — Part 2: Content Aggregation Model Version 1.1

There are several key concepts that are introduced in the SCORM CAM book. The book describes responsibilities and requirements for building content and content organizations (e.g., course, lessons, modules, etc.). The book 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. SCORM Content Packaging, as described in this book, 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. 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. General subjects discussed include:

• Content Model: Definition of common terminology used throughout the CAM book.

• Content Packaging: Descriptions and requirements for aggregating and bundling learning content.

• Metadata: Descriptions and requirements for describing SCORM components.

• Sequencing and Navigation: Descriptions and requirements for defining sequencing and navigation information.
