: Gordon Bateson described the QuizPort module, for administering potentially *any* externally authored quiz format; it's designed for Moodle 2.0 as it was in Feb 2009; it's been publicly available since early 2008 (i.e. over 18 months ago), is compatible with Moodle 1.0 - 1.9 and is in beta status. The TaskChain module is the QuizPort module with a meaningful, Moodle-friendly name; it also imports HotPots from Moodle 1.x. Gordon will add the TaskChain module to Moodle contrib with a view to replacing HotPot in Moodle 2.0. In the meantime he will continue to maintain HotPot for Moodle 2.0. Gordon also gave a demonstration of the TaskChain module (see the meeting recording). | |||
