Wikipedia must surely be on of the greatest innovations on the internet since the advent of Google and YouTube in my opinion.

The secret of it's success was to harness the power of user general knowledge via an extremely easy to use and read interface - a wiki. MediaWiki is a small package which contains everything you need to create your own wiki on any subject you choose. MediaWiki is already being used by several other projects of the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation including the MediaWiki developer site.

MediaWiki is basically a free server-based software which is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). If you're intent on creating a big or popular wiki don't worry - it's designed to be run on a large server farm for a website that gets millions of hits per day. MediaWiki uses PHP to process and display data stored in its MySQL database. However, it requires no SQL database knowledge on your part and pages use MediaWiki's wikitext format, so that users without knowledge of XHTML or CSS can edit them easily.

MediaWiki contains everything you need to get up and running with your own no matter how big or small your project.

The WordPal Vocabulary Builder program is designed to rapidly improve your vocabulary through active participation, quick repetition, and knowledge integration. Instead of having you passively read vocabulary definitions to learn new words, the program uses a series of challenging quizzes. All of these are fast paced to keep your mind focused on learning new words and steer clear of distracting thoughts. To achieve knowledge integration, the program uses six different quiz types, which are antonyms, definitions, odd man out, sentence completion, synonyms, and word order. Each of these is designed to reinforce the meaning of a new word and its relationship to other words. The basic philosophy is that words are more likely to be remembered when they are integrated into your existing knowledge. To help you quickly assimilate new words, whenever a wrong answer is selected, the program will immediately display the associated word definition or answer explanation.

By improving your vocabulary you will not only be enhancing your ability to communicate, but you will also be removing an obstacle that may be hindering your career advancement. And for those of you pursuing educational excellence, a better vocabulary is likely to result in higher verbal test scores, thereby improving your chances of gaining access to the university or graduate school of your choice. Have fun learning new words and the rewards of a better vocabulary will be yours to keep for a lifetime.

iTest is the kind of program teachers love and students hate: a complete tool to create exams and tests of all kinds.

The program is divided into two main applications: a server, which is the one the teacher uses to create the test, and the client, launched by the students who are taking it. Questions can be multiple-choice and have attached images, but unfortunately they must be in SVG format (and not other more popular formats such as JPG or BMP). You can also assign different difficulty degrees to questions and even set the time limit to answer each of them.

Once the server is up and running, the clients (students) can connect to it and begin the test. The teacher will then be able to track their progress and correct their answers on the fly, so that they can receive their grades upon finishing the test.

Generally speaking the whole system works fine but it's not that easy to use. We strongly recommend to read documentation thoroughly if you want to take full advantage of the program's functions. Also, I missed having some kind of sample database or questions to get you started, instead of having to create everything from scratch right from the beginning.

A full-featured yet complicated tool to create all sorts of exams.

My memory has always been like a sieve and it seems to be getting worse so I was more than intrigued to try out Teach2000.

Teach2000 is like a personal tutor that helps you memorize a foreign language, topography or even important historical facts and dates. It's aimed at students mainly who want to get ahead in their exams or classwork. The program has a quick start wizard that takes you through everything from scratch. It sets you a number of texts based on what you want to remember such as symbols, text or statistics. The program tests your memory by asking you to repeat whatever you've read several times until the number or words are drilled into your head. One good thing is that the program is not limited by language - it can handle phrases and texts in twelve different languages. It's also a very good way to improve your grammar (at least in English anyway) as it tests your ability to remember grammatical rules with a multiple choice test. The program is completely free and very fast at administration tests and changing from one to another. In case you want to use the tests outside of your PC, you can also print out tests and flashcards which could be useful in a classroom environment too.

A fast and innovative way to try and improve your memory although I bet I still forget my keys at least once this week even after using this.
