A SCORM package is a collection of files which are packaged according to an agreed standard for learning objects.

This is a fantastic introduction to citizen science in schools. I love how it emphasizes ICT-based collaboration and open learning — those are exactly the tools that help students become active contributors to real research, not just passivelearners. The connection between volunteer thinking, computing, and civic engagement is so valuable for today's classrooms. Thank you for sharing this resource!
