A client contacted me with a need to let students brainstorm a list of ideas/items and then later sort them into categories. I thought this was a great idea! So I got to work.
I recorded a screenr (bottom of post) to demo some of its features and how to use it... but really its pretty self-explanatory.
Set up your slides with a bit of instruction at the top.
Drop the gather.swf into the slide where you want them to input info
Drop either sort2.swf or sort3.swf into the slide where they should... well sort.
Fab interaction, thank you. Just wondering whether it is possible to tweak such that the initial list of words/concepts is already on the slide rather than the user having to brainstorm and type them in?

We updated the interaction on eLearningEnhanced.com so that you can now preset the words/phrases.

I could build a version that draws the words from an XML file. You would be able to edit the XML file to add/edit your terms and categories.
Would you also need feedback for correct/incorrect?
