ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a concept known commonly as the "learning object", articulate the foundational principles for developing a concept of LOs, and to provide guidelines for creating LOs. The paper proposes a view of the content packaging of learning objects grounding on the IMS Content Packaging and the SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model).

Learning technology specifications: semantic objects for adaptive learning environments
The aim of this paper is to describe our work towards the definition of adaptive learning designs using learning technology specifications. To accomplish this goal, first, we introduce learning technology standards and specifications, and their ...
Merits and pitfalls of programming learning objects: a pilot study
MoMM '12: Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Advances in Mobile Computing & MultimediaThis paper describes the outcome of an evaluation conducted on programming learning objects integrated in an actual lab setting. Learners' experience in using the learning objects is essential to identify design pitfalls and the issues that facilitate ...
Applying metadata standards to multilingual learning objects
In this paper, we propose extensions to the IEEE Learning Object Metadata standard to provide the necessary mechanisms for describing and relating alternative language versions of learning resources. The work presented involves the identification of the ...
