The Hot Potatoes suite includes six applications, enabling you to create interactive multiple-choice, short-answer, jumbled-sentence, crossword, matching/ordering and gap-fill exercises for the World Wide Web. Hot Potatoes is not freeware, but it is free of charge for those working for publicly-funded non-profit-making educational institutions, who make their pages available on the web. One of the things that I really like about Hot Potatoes is it's seemless integration with certain Learning Management Systems. I use Moodle quite a bit, and you can include a Hot Potatoes activity right in the Moodle course.
