Learn@UW Quiz Question Importer Tool | Technology Solutions for Teaching and Research
The Learn@UW / Desire2Learn Question Importer Tool allows you to easily create Desire2Learn-ready CSV (comma separated value) files from existing quiz or exam documents. You can copy your question & answer text into the tool directly from programs such as Microsoft Word, iWork Pages or any other word processing/text editing programs, and after some slight reformatting and simple markup addition, quickly import your questions & answers into a D2L Question Library.
At this time, the generator can only format the following question types for import into D2L: Multiple Choice, Multi-select (multiple answer), True/False, Long Answer (essay), Short Answer (also works as “fill in the blank”), Matching & Ordering.
Complete documentation is available at: https://academictech.doit.wisc.edu/files/D2L question tool documentation.pdf (PDF, 109 KB)

Expono: Flickr, Picasa and the Kitchen Sink
You can't swing a stick on the Web these days without hitting a photo or media sharing service. Some of the most popular ones like Flickr and Photobucket have become an indispensable part of our online lives. Among the most recent services to enter the game is Expono, a photo sharing, organizing and protecting service with added features like GPS tagging and the ability to connect with social media services Facebook, Twitter and Friendfeed. Expono has everything you would expect to find on a media sharing site like online backup, easy sharing, albums and tagging, but adds a whole bunch more features that you might not expect all in one place. It is certainly worth taking a look at.
FolioSpaces - free opensource e-portfolio
ePortfolios have become increasingly popular during the last five years. Originally focused in the education sector ePortfolios are now widely used in business and by individuals. Foliospaces was established to allow users to maintain control of their hosting. If you move from one education institution to another, change employment, or have varied hobbies or interests, Foliospaces is your personal space. At the heart of Foliospaces is Mahara opensource software. First established in mid 2006, the Mahara project started as collaborative venture funded by New Zealand's Tertiary Education Commission's e-learning Collaborative Development Fund (eCDF), which involved Massey University, Auckland University of Technology, The Open Polytechnic of New Zealand, and Victoria University of Wellington.
NCAM/Media Access Generator (MAGpie)
Media Access Generator (MAGpie)
Version 2.0.2 (OS X) and 2.0.5 (Windows) are now available
Developers of Web- and CD-ROM-based multimedia need an authoring tool for making their materials accessible to persons with disabilities. The Carl and Ruth Shapiro Family National Center for Accessible Media (NCAM) has developed two such tools, version 1.0 and 2.0.2 of the Media Access Generator (MAGpie), for creating captions and audio descriptions for rich media.
Wolfram|Alpha
Today's Wolfram|Alpha is the first step in an ambitious, long-term project to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable by anyone. You enter your question or calculation, and Wolfram|Alpha uses its built-in algorithms and growing collection of data to compute the answer.
timeEdition - time management
timeEdition simplifies the work involved in entering your time data, while at the same time ensuring that incorrect time data cannot be input. For example, forgetting to stop recording when you stop performing the activity is not a problem: timeEdition stops recording automatically as per your setting for the freely definable period of user inactivity. This means that if there is no input via either the mouse or the keyboard for a specific period, timeEdition automatically stops recording.
A further core function of timeEdition is its close links to popular calendar applications. timeEdition works perfectly with Apple's iCal, Microsoft Outlook and Google Calendar. The software lets you automatically transfer your time records into any one of these calendar applications. You retain an overview of work you have performed, even in retrospect.
Read The Words
"ReadTheWords.com is a free, web based service that assists people with written material. We do this by using TTS Technology, or Text To Speech Technology. Users of our service can generate a clear sounding audio file from almost any written material. We generate a voice that reads the words out loud, that you request us to read."
