Claim:
A method, comprising: receiving, at a first server within a first Web domain, a first request for educational content that resides within the first Web domain, wherein the first request for the educational content is received from a first learning management system (LMS) residing within a second Web domain distinct from the first Web domain; receiving, at the first server, a second request for the educational content that resides within the first Web domain, wherein the second request for the educational content is received from a second LMS residing within a third Web domain distinct from the first Web domain and the second Web domain; displaying the educational content in a Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) conformant navigation engine within the first Web domain via a first pointer Shareable Content Object (SCO) in the first LMS within the second Web domain; displaying the educational content in the SCORM-conformant navigation engine within the first Web domain via a second pointer SCO in the second LMS within the third Web domain; modifying the educational content within the first Web domain, and making the modified educational content available for access via the first LMS within the second Web domain or via the second LMS within the third Web domain, without distributing the modified educational content to a second server on which the first LMS resides, or to a third server on which the second LMS resides; displaying existing learner performance data in the SCORM-conformant navigation engine residing within the first Web domain, wherein the existing learner performance data is received from the first LMS via the first pointer SCO or from the second LMS via the second pointer SCO, and wherein the existing learner performance data comprises at least one of a user's session information, bookmark, history, performance, progress, efficiency, effectiveness, personal data, course data, academic data, time spent, standard reached, completion data, most recently viewed content and completion percentage; sending, from the SCORM-conformant navigation engine within the first Web domain, via the first pointer SCO, first updated learner performance data to the first LMS; and sending, from the SCORM-conformant navigation engine within the first Web domain, via the second pointer SCO, second updated learner performance data to the second LMS.
