VIDIZMO.COM is not a traditional “LMS”. It is a hosted environment for organizations to produce and broadcast their rich media learning content to their members, and evaluate results. For VIDIZMO.COM in its current form, SCORM conformance is not relevant.

The Mashup however qualifies as a SCORM compliant “SCO” (sharable content object), with its constituent media contents qualifying as “Assets”. Campaigns in VIDIZMO.COM qualify as “Aggregations”.

Because each Mashup is a Rich Internet Application, it consists of a “xaml” file with sequencing and instructions on how the player is to behave on quizzes and videos.

Ultra Mashup Player is an embeddable component that can run from any LMS (or any other) host, making the Mashups truly re-usable and Sharable Content Objects.
