Implementing content packaging standards

The paper deals with the issue of standards and specifications applied to educational digital content. Content packaging has to comply to standards to assure its interoperability and portability, as well as facilitate search and discovery, accessibility, and (re)use. Two most common packaging standards for educational content are described in the paper: already recognized and widely used ADL SCORM, and a newcomer in the field, IMS Common Cartridge, which successfully overcomes some problems of using modern Web technologies in education. We also describe our experience in implementing these standards, the problems, and advantages of using such packaged content.
