Conversion Tools for Moodle Quiz (or Glossary)

If you have a large amount of quizzes in hard copy format (Word) it might be worth the trouble to do a little bit of formatting and then use an online converter tool. Also, if you prefer to work in a text editor or Excel (as opposed to using the CCLE Quiz interface online) this tool may be handy as well. As we find more suitable tools, we will list them here.
