Developers' reply is that it could be because it is a 'safe' Flickr search. But you're right the results do seem substantially different. Yes it is puzzling.

I just wish the Flickr images it returns in its search were the same range and standard that you get if you search for Creative Commons images within Flickr or through something like FlickrCC... Am puzzled that it returns content that is so different to an equivalent search term used elsewhere?!? Great time-saver!

Thu, 10 Sep 2009 18:01:28 +0000 http://blogs.bath.ac.uk/elat/?p=102#comment-51 How about grading/performance recording for exercises created with eXe and Xerte? In my (minimal and probably outdated) experience with eXe and my uni's Moodle (which requires SCORM 1.2 packages), it could not record/grade student performance for eXe-created activities. As for Xerte, I'm having trouble finding out: a search for "scorm" produces no results on their wiki and too much (still reading through) on the mailing list. I'm also looking into Udutu: not free-libre but free-gratis at least, and would appreciate any ideas for free-gratis authoring tools.
