E-Scorm Player

What is Scorm?

SCORM, or Sharable Content Object Reference Model, was developed by public- and private-sector organizations under the auspices of the Defence Department's Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative. The initiative began in 1997 to promote cooperation among government agencies, industry and academia to develop e-learning standardization. SCORM is a compilation of technical specifications that enable interoperability, accessibility and reusability of Web-based learning content.

E-learning content and learning management systems built to the SCORM specification allow for sharing of courses across federal agencies and even with other entities, such as nongovernmental colleges and universities.

SCORM also allows for sharing of smaller pieces of e-learning courses, called learning objects. Learning objects include course modules, book chapters, videos or even smaller, discrete pieces of information. The result will be faster, more personalized learning experiences, e-learning experts said. Those learning objects could also be easily incorporated into other e-learning courses.

Hosted E-Scorm Player

We offer a hosted solution that allows your company to rapidly deploy SCORM compliant e-learning.  Many clients only need to run one or two courses a year and simply can’t justify the cost of implementing a full Learning Management System.

Typical uses would be pre training analysis to facilitate delivery of online course work with a detailed assessment. E-Scorm Player is a fully functioning Scorm player, which allows analysis of every question asked and answered. Unlike many Scorm players that can deliver only basic Scorm quizzes which output only the most basic of answers such as pass and fail and overall score.

The only field that a Scorm course can use to store arbitrary data (results to individual questions) is cmi.suspend_data. This field is a single string of data and its contents and behaviour is left up to the course authors.

We use this field to store any non-standard feedback and progress information. The way to store all the feedback information in a single string is again up to us. For example, we can store user feedback on a multiple-choice quiz as "[[1,5],[3],[6,2]]".

Using this approach means the hosted E-Scorm player will know how to interpret the suspend_data field. As the backend of our hosted solutions allows the export of the Suspend Field to excel, allowing training managers to analyse the actual results and not just the top line score.

E-Scorm Player API

Many companies have traditional Learning Management Systems that are not Scorm Compliant using our API it is possible to integrate your LMS with our Scorm complaint player.

The API works by passing session data between the two systems. Typically the client needs to develop a place to launch the course and somewhere to store the results passed back from our system.

API Costs
Per Domain £299 + Vat per Month.

Scorm Compliant Course Development

Our skilled team of course authors can provide feature rich e-learning Scorm complaint courses. There are many free tools on the market that allow end users to create simple flash based e-learning. However these types of tools do not allow the creation of complex e-learning, such as being able to tell if a user actually watched a video embedded in the course or adding scores together from multiple sco’s to give an overall result. Even more importantly all our courses can make use of the cmi data suspend field allowing individual answers to questions to be passed back to the LMS.
