18. IMS Content Package

The IMS Content Package 

activity allows you to upload and integrate educational materials into your course that conform to the IMS (Instructional Management System) standard, which ensures compatibility across various e-learning platforms.

  • An IMS package is a compressed archive containing structured learning resources (e.g., lessons, quizzes, multimedia files) following IMS specifications.
  • Moodle supports direct uploads and displays the content with customizable navigation via menus, buttons, etc.
  • This type of content is designed for reuse and transfer between different LMS platforms without requiring format conversion.

It is especially useful when working with externally produced content or authoring tools that support the IMS standard, ensuring portability and compatibility.
