Hi Aaron,

If you have the resources to come up with the UI, then go for it. UCT's 
EMI, which seems to be optimized for supporting medical education, will 
meet Stanford's requirements so we don't need to invest more time in 
this area. Some members of the SAMigo working group have expressed 
interest in UCT's EMI so would probably be interested in what you are 
proposing to do to the existing matching question type. The next SAMigo 
working group conference call is Tuesday 10.18 11am (PDT). Call details 
can be found at 
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/SAM/Samigo+Working+Group. 
You would be able to receive a lot of useful feedback from the group if 
you can step through your proposal; even better if you have something to 
show.

Thanks,
Jackie
