Blending Learning with SCORM

Learning Objective

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to define blended learning and SCORM and understand how to use them in your teaching.

Introduce the learning objective and explain how it aligns with the overall course goals.

What do you already know about blended learning consortium and SCORM?

Blended Learning Consortium

Blended learning is a combination of traditional classroom teaching and online learning. A blended learning consortium is a group of organizations that collaborate to provide blended learning opportunities.

Explain the concept of blended learning, and provide examples of various blended learning models used in education.

SCORM

SCORM stands for Sharable Content Object Reference Model. It is a set of technical standards for e-learning software products. SCORM ensures that online learning content and Learning Management Systems (LMS) are compatible with each other.

Explain the concept of SCORM, and provide examples of how it is used in e-learning.

Benefits of SCORM

SCORM allows you to track and report on learner progress, provides a standardized way to develop and deliver e-learning content, and allows for easier sharing of content between different systems.

Highlight the benefits of using SCORM in e-learning, and how it can help teachers and learners.

Creating SCORM Content

To create SCORM content, you will need a tool that can create SCORM packages. Some popular tools include Adobe Captivate, Articulate Storyline, and Lectora Inspire.

Provide information on how to create SCORM content, including what tools are available and how to use them.

Uploading SCORM Content

To upload SCORM content to an LMS, you will need to ensure that the SCORM package is compliant with the LMS. You will then need to upload the package to the LMS and configure the settings.

Explain how to upload SCORM content to an LMS, and provide instructions on how to configure the settings.

Using SCORM Reports

SCORM reports provide information on learner progress, such as completion status and quiz scores. You can use this information to identify areas where learners may be struggling and adjust your teaching accordingly.

Explain how to use SCORM reports to track learner progress, and provide examples of how this information can be used to improve teaching.

Conclusion

Blended learning and SCORM are powerful tools for educators. By combining the best of traditional classroom teaching with online learning, and using SCORM to create and track e-learning content, you can provide your learners with a flexible, engaging, and effective learning experience.

Summarize the key takeaways of the lesson, and emphasize the importance of using blended learning and SCORM in education.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.

Ask 1 question about something you haven't quite understood yet.

The students indicate here (in question form) with which part of the material they still have difficulty. For the teacher, this not only provides insight into the extent to which the students understand/master the material, but also a good starting point for the next lesson.
