3.8.7 LearningResourcePackage

Many instructional applications in a SIF zone need to share teaching and learning objects. Curriculum planning applications, content repositories, learning management systems, etc.—all of these systems need to share instructional content utilizing the LearningResource object.

The LearningResourcePackage object provides a transport envelope to move these files across the SIF zone.

Note: With SIF Implementation Specification version 2.4 the choice element depicted in the diagram below has changed. In the XSD files, the choice element used to be rendered as a sequence of optional elements. Now, in the XSD files, the choice element is rendered as an xs:choice. This may cause problems with agents that treat the choice element as two optional elements rather than a choice of one and only one of the choices.
