Hello
I have been running a phonetics course in webct for the last year, using phonetic fonts in multiple choice quizzes. I would like to be able to allow students to type in the ipa fonts in their answers rather than doing multiple choice, but I can't do this in webct so I have tuned to moodle to see if it is possible. One possibility would be to use a keyboard manager which would generate the required characters, but students can't control which font they are typing in - they would need to be able to select a unicode font.
I also though that perhaps a javascript character map would work, where students could copy and paste characters into the answer box.
Can anyone suggest any solutions?
Thanks
Nikki
