Nugent, Gwen; Soh, Leen-Kiat; Samal, Ashok – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2006
A learning object is a small, stand-alone, mediated content resource that can be reused in multiple instructional contexts. In this article, we describe our approach to design, develop, and validate Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) compliant learning objects for undergraduate computer science education. We discuss the advantages of…
