Hot Potatoes is an excellent educational suite of 5 authoring tools that has been designed to help educators, teachers and materials-writers to put an educational material on the Web. It has several applets that create interactive multiple-choice, short-answer, gap-fill, crossword and jumbled-sentence exercises using HTML and JavaScript.
With Hot Potatoes, you don't need to know any HTML or JavaScript to use them, nor any IT expertise. It is very easy to use and the application supports the use of accented characters for languages other than English so you can have better and easier understanding. This suite includes version 2s of JBC, JQuiz and MiniTools, and supersedes the previous versions of these standalone applications.
Hot Potatoes is not a freeware, however, it is free of charge for those working for publicly-funded non-profit-making educational institutions, who make their pages available on the web.
