[SoaS] Sharing work between XOs/SOAS devices

[Gerald Ardito]

Hello all.

As our 5th graders are doing more and more work with their XOs, their being
able to turn in and share their work products (as opposed to collaborating
with others) is becoming more and more important.

My temporary solution is having them upload their work (along with
reflections, if desired) to Moodle, which I can do because we have an XS
implementation. However, this means that if a student has created a Memorize
vocabulary game that s/he want to share s/he has to:
1. Create the game.
2. Save it to the Journal
3. Go to Browse
4. Navigate to Moodle
5. Find the right course/right assignment within the course
6. Upload game.

S/he pretty much has to do the same thing to download and then play other
games. This is certainly workable, but dramatically slows down the momentum
of creating games and wanting others to play them.

So, I am asking to create/offering to help create an Activity that allows
users to share work products easily. I know that Bert was working on
something called Distribute, which may be a starting place. It seems to
share Journal objects, which seems right.

I am happy to work with developers on this. I could create requirements, if
need be. Just say the word.

I look forward to what comes next.

Thanks and best,
Gerald
