Adding Content to a Course | How to add SCORM/xAPI object to a course

SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) is a unit of online training material that can be shared across systems. SCORM defines as a specific way of constructing Learning Management Systems (LMS). In Brightspace, you can add SCORM packages to your course content in two different ways:

Please be aware: a SCORM package has at least the documents index.htm(l) and imsmanifest.xml on the root of the zip. Is this not the case, then you are dealing with an e-module, which needs to be imported differently.
