Description

See http://www.e-learningforkids.org

This site has a really cool selection of content suitable for kids.

Random example: http://www.e-learningforkids.org/Courses/Liquid_Animation/Body_Parts/Skeleton/index.html

How can we use stuff like this in Moodle resources? (We need to return a direct URL, I think).

Should we return the link of the flash, then use filter to re-format it.

I was mostly thinking of modules like the "Url" module. Would it make sense to have a "url" media type for this case? So that only repositories that know how to return URLs are shown?

Note, this led to development of a new form element: MDL-20470

Now we just need an e-learningforkids.org API to talk to.

Ideally we should be be able to send a search string and get back a list of results by relevance, and also we should be able to send a category/path and receive a list of objects and sub-categories. The lists should contain at least name, thumbnail, and url. Anything else you need, Dongsheng?

Dongsheng, can you please expand/add anything that might be missing?
