SOL 01 Solution

Meletema

Meletema is adaptive flashcards inside your LMS. Instructors compose a deck, add it to a course in Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard — any LMS that speaks LTI — and students practice until the cards stick. F...

  • Per-card mastery scores. Missed cards loop back. Flip cards and multiple choice, chosen automatically.
  • LTI 1.1, LTI 1.3, and dynamic registration. Whatever your school runs, Meletema plugs in.
  • Final scores post over AGS or Basic Outcomes — signed, queued, and retried until they land in the gradebook.
  • Folders, tags, search, and per-org sharing. Build once, reuse across courses.
  • No ads and no data harvesting. Student practice data stays with your institution.

Omeka Hosting & Extensions

RefBytes provides managed hosting for Omeka Classic and Omeka S, built for libraries, archives, and exhibits. Focus on your content, not your infrastructure — we handle the servers, upgrades, and back...

  • Manage Omeka Classic and Omeka S side by side, with the same site management tools for both.
  • Platform, module, and theme upgrades from an intuitive interface. No logging in to the server or transferring files.
  • Add your own domain and enable SSL with a single click. A temporary subdomain comes with every site for staging.
  • Add admin users to your account so your team can create and manage sites together.
  • Install any module or theme from the Omeka directory, with no limit on how many.
  • Pre-upgrade and regularly scheduled automated backups, so a bad update is never the end of the story.
  • Spin up multiple sites with the same modules and themes — handy for a class or a department rollout.

RefBytes A-Z

The A-Z database list is one of the most-used pages a library runs, and one of the most tedious to keep current. RefBytes A-Z turns it into a managed collection: staff maintain each entry in one place...

  • Patrons search across database names, descriptions, subjects, and alternate titles — not just an alphabetical browse.
  • Narrow by subject area, resource type, or vendor, and link straight to a subject view from a research guide.
  • Proxy prefixes are handled per entry, so links work the same from a dorm room as from the reference desk.
  • Track trial windows, renewal dates, and vendor and licensing details right next to the entry they belong to.
  • Pull the live list into your website, research guides, or discovery layer through a documented read API.
  • Bring your existing list in from a spreadsheet, and take your data back out whenever you want it.
