Increase Efficiency of Digital Content Development
IMS provides several technical interoperability standards to aid an organization with creating digital content in an efficient manner.
These standards support the development, distribution and repurposing of digital content in an interoperable format so that an organization's digital learning assets can be delivered via varying learning systems or platforms and reduce the risk of having to recreate your digital content - should you choose to implement multiple LMS or migrate to IMS conformant systems and applications.
-
Content Packaging (CP) provides organizations and institutions an efficient packaging and distribution framework for digital learning content and resources.
- Common Cartridge (CC) establishes a development, distribution and authorization framework for the integration of rich, digital content and associated digital learning tools (simulations, assessments, tests, online labs, forums, discussions, etc.).
- K12/Schools Enhancements to Common Cartridge (K12 CC) will enable the alignment of rich, digital content and assessments to curriculum standards, learning objectives and lesson planning.
- Learning Object Discovery and Exchange (LODE) will provide enhanced identification and accessibility to learning content stored in repositories and online library resources and enable educators to develop courses and programs with a wider array of source material (open and for-profit).
- Dynamic Instructional Content Exchange (DICE) aims to develop a born-digital substitute for current textbooks and “etextbooks” and enable enhanced student learning, increased access to learning resources, and cost reductions to students and content providers.
