Short answer: static SCORM is a sealed package, so it cannot talk to an AI service. Dynamic SCORM keeps a live link to the course, which is what an AI tutor needs.
Static SCORM
- Everything is zipped inside the package
- Works offline and in locked-down LMSs
- Updates mean re-exporting and re-uploading
- No AI tutor
Dynamic SCORM
- A small package that loads the live course
- Updates appear without re-uploading
- Supports CourseAgent Course Tutor
- Still reports completion and scores to your LMS
