Who said Moodle doesn't have zombies? We've got lots. This is a Zombie adventure for Moodle written using MiniLesson and it's AI assistant.

MiniLesson now has an AI assistant built into the activity. Describe the lesson you want, approve the plan it shows you, and it builds the items.

WordCards is a new MiniLesson item for practicing vocabulary. There are four practice types - listen and type, listen and choose, type the word, choose the word.

Four new MiniLesson item types landed over the last couple of months - Cards and WordCards for vocabulary, Video Shadowing for speaking along with YouTube, and Multichoice Quiz for questions about a passage.

TTS Dialog is one of the quieter features in MiniLesson, turning short scripts into spoken conversations. We've completely revamped the player with full transcripts, playback controls, and tap-to-translate.

Automatically fetching a YouTube video's subtitles turned out to be a losing battle - here's what we tried, what we removed, and the manual fallback we landed on.

Every item type in MiniLesson - Multichoice, Dictation, Shadow, Cards and around 30 others - is now its own self-contained plugin, and adding a new one no longer touches the core plugin at all.
