| : This screen is very straightforward and nicely done. However, I think the format should be multiple choice. Text answer/response is way too slow and inaccurate. The teacher should be able to provide several answers to choose from (e.g. multiple choice). The question and answers should be able to be text, a picture (imported from the Journal) and/or sound. It should be possible to create a sequence of questions offline and save them to the Journal (with the pictures and sounds included in the Journal bundle). | | : This screen is very straightforward and nicely done.

| - The 2nd screen is what the student would see after the teacher submits a question. The teachers question is displayed as well as a timer and a space for an answer. When the timer runs out, an answer is submitted regardless, otherwise the student can just input an answer and send/submit it. | | - The 2nd screen is what the student would see after the teacher submits a question.

| + | ==== Why FLash? ==== |
| + | |
| + | Is there any advantage of developing this activity in Flash instead of as a native Sugar app in Python? The disadvantages of course are (1) that it requires loading Flash (or Gnash) which is not easy on the systems currently in the field (less of an issue in 0.86+) and (2) Flash is difficult if not impossible to localize. --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 17:39, 26 October 2009 (UTC) |
