The Use of SCORM Specification in Designing Reusable Learning Content

The widespread use of WWW for educational purposes creates opportunities in reusing educational materials. In the past, most of the learning materials are created for a specific purpose in a specific context such as for military training, employees’ supervisions, and training community. The way of...
