From Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk Thu Feb 11 15:01:33 2016 From: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk (Julian Tenney) Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 15:01:33 +0000 Subject: [Xerte-dev] Xerte Users: Win a Trip to New York! Message-ID: <5C33B277BFD6E9458C6D394195F98CF604764AF5@UiWexMBX07.ad.nottingham.ac.uk> Hi, The Apereo Foundation now welcomes entries into the annual ATLAS Awards for projects using Xerte Online Toolkits. The awards seek to recognise innovation and excellence in the use of Apereo's open-source tools and technologies. Winners will be announced in early April 2016 and recognized at the Open Apereo Conference May 22nd - 25th 2016, hosted by New York University in New York City. You did read it right: registration and travel expenses will be covered for the award winners! Apereo plan to recognise up to six initiatives. Further information and entry details can be found here: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/awards.aspx. It would be fantastic to see some of the fantastic work going on in our community recognised in these awards. Tickets are selling for the Xerte Conference 2016. Early-bird discounts finish on 11th March: http://xerteconference2016.eventbrite.com/?aff=alt Apologies for cross-posting, Julian -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

At a timestamp in the url that loads xenth.js , ie src="xenith.js?_=" or similar The drawback of course is that xenith.js (and similar files) are not cached anymore, increasing the time needed to load an LO 2. Add a version to the filename of xenith.js, i.e. everytime something changes in xenith.js, change the version. This is the approach used by a lot of javascript libraries, cf. jQuery. But it it's painfull, and errorprone (or we have to have a build process). 3. An interesting variation could be the combination of 1. and 2. We have a version string maintained in the file version.txt in the root folder of the installation. This file is automatically updated when publishing zips for the community websites. We could add ?version='' to all the files we want to reload after a new release, such as xenith.js Tests show that this works fine ans as expected. I would like to implement 3.

The idea is that you can mark up sections of text and assign them to a group. These groups can then be used in a variety of activities. E.g. Find all the adjectives in the text, then find all the verbs etc. Here's what you do... 1. Enter your text in the 'interactive text' field 2. In a similar way to the gap fill page you mark up the text by surrounding it with a character of your choice (avoid using & < >). You have to manually enter these delimiters yourself. e.g. The |quick| |brown| #fox# *jumped* over the |lazy| #dog# where | marks up adjectives, # nouns and * verbs. 3. Add a 'New Group' for each group you've marked up (in this case 3 groups: adjectives, verbs, nouns) 4. In each group you give it a name, description and say what delimiter you used to mark words for it in the text. This should give you a basic page where you can click sections of text to find out about them. There are several interaction types you can choose to change the activity created. Hope this helps!

No the database authentication option doesn't allow self-registration - accounts are created via the management are and admin account. With the Techdis sandpit we used Moodle for authentication and so could allow self-registration via that route and also authentication via any of the enabled Moodle authentication methods. Also provides for self-help with password reminders etc. In the very early version of the sandpit when it was hosted by Dave Goodwin there was some self-registration code added along with some other customisations for wiping accounts etc. That was never part of core.
