What exactly is a Module/Library?

I’m writing a game, and have made a module. It works well, and I know how (syntactically) to make modules work, but what is a module, in the sense of how Corona compiles it?

In comparison to Flash, is it just included script (as in, the include statement), or could it be seen as a swc file, or a class container, where the graphics that are instantiated inside the module are considered “part” of a module?

Should we load, or require, a module as a runtime-loaded asset? I wonder if I’m making my point correctly here…

Thanks for any help,
