Learning Management Systems are often used in e-Learning and e- Learning
content has to be made available for use inside such systems. This is
usually quite easy to do. SCORM is a standard for this. However, if the
content needs to run on a dedicated server, which might be different
from the server running the LMS, this can be complicated. This is for
example the case with interactive mathematical exercises in the MathDox
system.
A tool has been developed to easily create basic SCORM packages that
contain references to MathDox exercises. These packages contain scripts
that communicate results on the exercises between the LMS and the
underlying interactive exercise system (MathDox). In this way we have
created a method for teachers to use MathDox exercises in SCORM
compatible LMS like Moodle, ILIAS, or Blackboard without the need of a
plugin.
As our set up is independent of MathDox, it should be fairly easy to
extend this to other exercise systems or e-learning applications.
