SCO stands for shareable content object. If a course is not built to be shareable, it isn’t really a SCO, even if it uses SCORM for packaging. Spinning SCORM’s communication element off into its own standard — without the name SCORM — would free SCORM to truly be a Shareable Content Object Reference Model, and would free non-aggregators from having to deal with the complexities of SCORM.

If you’re trying to use SCORM in your e-learning, you’ve undoubtedly heard of JavaScript and ActionScript. But do you know the different between ECMAScript, JavaScript, and ActionScript?

Alex Russell has provided definitions for many of the ECMAScript-related names you might be reading about these days, including ECMAScript (3, 3.1, 4), ActionScript 3, Harmony, and JavaScript 2.

Very helpful!
