Abstract: A collaboration among the Hospital S. Giovanni Battista
of Turin, the Politecnico of Turin, and the MUST company is
described. The content of the collaboration has been and is the use of
ICT-s, e-learning, and blended learning for the internal professional
education, training, and keeping up to date of the personnel of the
hospital. A platform for the delivery of the teaching materials has
been built, including an evaluation and self-evaluation tool. The first
on line courses have been developed and delivered and many more
are in preparation. The first results of the monitoring of the efficacy
of the online education have been positive.
Abstract: A key requirement for e-learning materials is
reusability and interoperability, that is the possibility to use at least
part of the contents in different courses, and to deliver them trough
different platforms. These features make possible to limit the cost of
new packages, but require the development of material according to
proper specifications. SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference
Model) is a set of guidelines suitable for this purpose. A specific
adaptation project has been started to make possible to reuse existing
materials. The paper describes the main characteristics of SCORM
specification, and the procedure used to modify the existing material.
