Flash module add-on: audio testing

Hello, I am new to Moodle.

Does anyone know of any modules that currently exist or are being developed, where the teacher can record a question and the student can listen to that question and record an answer in return?

So when the teacher grades the test, they listen to each audio response and manually grade each question.

The only way to do this now would be to allow the user to upload an mp3 they record themselves with some software.

This is the kind of thing that would be possible with no special software needed by the user using red5 to capture audio through the Flash plug-in.

I have experience with Flash communication server streaming applications that can record and playback audio. Where can I find information on how to develop and implement this as a Moodle module?

You will want to start here : basic developer information

You could look at the multimedia filter which plays back mp3 using a Flash plug in. It would be cool to have something similar to record audio. There are all kinds of way you could integrate FCS with Moodle.

The best place to find info on developing an activity module is to search the forums where there are some good pointers. Also there is a NEWMODULE skeleton activity module that will give you a start and includes some documentation.
