The Chromebooks will be optimised for the student experience complete with course work and direct online access to enroled Online Courses. With the central management console being deployed, tutors and students can communicate like never before.
So what are some of the benefits for going Google Chrome?
Design and features
The silver-colored body is covered in a textured resin that I personally do not like the feel of. Plus, the lid has some flex to it and doesn't seem like it'll offer too much protection for the screen on the inside. However, Toshiba offers optional snap-on covers for this model that should toughen it up a bit as well as smooth out the finish.

What is SCORM?
In a nutshell, being SCORM certified means that Learning Cloud is up to date with Online Learning.
SCORM stands for "Shareable Content Object Reference Model" and it is a set of technical standards developed for eLearning software products. In its essence, SCORM enables interoperability between eLearning software products. Specifically, the model determines how online learning content and Learning Management Systems (LMS) communicate with each other.
How did SCORM come about?
Back in the nineties, the US government was doing a lot of online training across all of their different departments. Each department operated autonomously developing their own training courses and delivering them via the LMS of their choice. As you can imagine, this led to a lot of content duplication and results located all over the place. Without any standards, there was no interoperability between the various departments' content and all of the proprietary LMSs being used. Therefore, in 1999 the Department of Defence tasked a research group called Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) with the job of developing a set of standards which later became known as SCORM.
What does it mean when it says Learning Cloud is
SCORM 1.2 Certified?
SCORM 1.2 is one version of the eLearning software standards that have evolved
over time. There are currently 3 versions and the latest one has a few different editions.
Released in October 2001, SCORM 1.2 is the most common and widely adopted version
that will be around for a good, long while to come. When we say we're SCORM 1.2
Certified, this means that we have sent our product to ADL, it has passed the SCORM 1.2
Edition LMS certification process and ADL has confirmed that we have implemented the
SCORM 1.2 standards correctly.
