Used POE and GEMINI to create canvas app: comparison

 Starting File: A WORD file containing the lecture notes for S3 of my Phonology course. The key words are asterisked. 

In each of POE and Gemini, I uploaded my WORD file, and then asked: 

Create a web-based, interactive, blank-filling exercise, from the attached file. Turn each asterisked word into a blank. Provide a word bank which includes all the asterisked words. Students will be able to see their correct and wrong answers when they have finished the blank-filling exercise.

OUTPUT

POE: https://poe.com/preview/0dtxf4WiDj8AljiUgxge 

GEMINI: https://g.co/gemini/share/5eb9030bf8a2 



OBSERVATIONS

1. Both apps work.

2. Both apps have kept the original formatting of my WORD file to a large extent. POE performs better in this regard. 

3. The output URL from Gemini can also be opened in Chrome. 

4. Gemini has come up with an even better layout, with the Word Bank at the top of the page.
