Gap-text activity
From Olpcaustria
This activity provides a framework for homeworks or tests. A teacher defines a text and gaps between. The teacher might optionally define a solution, so that there will appear a check if the child has solved the problem.

Further issues
- Restrictions
- For tests, the teacher might want to disable the sharing of the activity or disable the calculator. Also, after reporting the result to the teacher, the content that the child has provided might get freezed. The teacher can annotate the result for correction purposes.
- Images
- The application should also support images.
- Use-Cases:
- The child shall write the name of an object (thing, person, country, etc.) that is shown within the picture into the field next to the picture.
- The child shall give a formular for a graph (lines, triangles, etc.).
- Notes and Graphs
- A big field for notes, graphs, or calculations might be provided. A solution of an question might also be a graph from a graph-calculator or a painting-activity (packed together with the questions in an archive).
- Multiple Choise
- Dependend on the situation, the teacher might give a set of possible solutions.
