Learning in the age of global information technology: development of a generic architecture for an advanced learning management system

This paper briefly introduces the trends towards e‐learning and amplifies some examples of state of the art systems, pointing out that all of these are, to date, limited by adaptability and shareability of content and that it is necessary for industry to develop and use an inter‐operability standard. Uses SCORM specifications to specify the skeleton of an architecture to develop an advanced learning management system.
