SCORM: 1.2 vs 2004
Hi everyone,
I'm wondering the difference (pros and cons?) of publishing for SCORM: 1.2 vs 2004.
I tried looking this up, but couldn't find consistent, conclusive information. Any input is great...

The output to use often depends on what the LMS is set up for. However, if you have a choice, I'd say you should definitely go with SCORM 2004 (edition 3 or 4). That has a much higher limit for suspend data. That means it'll allow more info to be stored for resuming a course. (With low data limits and a big/complicated course, it's possible that a user wouldn't be able to resume where they left off if they exit the course before finishing.)
