Code of Ethics 05

3.06. Work to follow professional standards, when available, that are most appropriate for the task at hand, departing from these only when ethically or technically justified.

This code implies that we cannot ignore the standards, if they are clearly available unless we have an acceptable reason to do so. Through following the standards we can achieve the transparency, re usability and fairness for our work, even though it might not be that much cost effective, but following the standards can bring the whole project in to both stable and sustainable status.

As this is an e-learning site, our client strictly wanted us to follow the SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) standard in the process. Therefore we followed it and because of that we received many benefits as well. Firstly, we were able to import and the edit the activities and the lesson content we made in different devices. We were able to export it in to different formats and import it in to the different e learning software and alter the content as we prefer. When we were looking for appropriate Content Management System (CMS) to match with the project, we figure out most of the CMS are working really well with our developed content because we followed this well-defined technical standard.  Even the content of the project was reusable and able to easily share and transfer among the other Learning Management Systems (LMS) as well.
