Hi Skip,

Thanks for that - I have spent a far amount of time on the wiki so it would be great to see many people using it :-) I am a huge fan of open source software. Here is a quick list of my favourites that I use on a regular basis (I have a mac but work in PC schools so have a mix):
GIMP (have tutorials on my wiki)
Seashore (mac)
Paint.net (pc)
Cmap
Imagewell (mac)
Art Rage 2
Cyberduck (mac)
Skype
Photostory 3

I'm sure there's more that I can't think of right now - I'll add to the list later
Suzie

In that case Suziea, I have a challenge. I am trying to find an online / FREE leaderboard program for the students to post their scores on a course wiki. For example, they take a test or play a mini quiz and then submit their scores which automatically reports a leaderboard. Any thoughts, feel free to take up the challange Skip.

Kristian,

Perhaps the flakes available in pageflakes.com could be of use. Most of them allow export of a script so you can paste the code anywhere that will accept it and get the same functionality as what you get in pageflakes itself. I have used the ToDo list and it works well and the grades flake is nice alos - might be what you are after. You would have to publish the page so that anyone can edit it to ensure students can add their own result though. Just a thought.

Perhaps netvibes has similar solutions as well.

Cheers,
Jason
