ExeLearning
My former professor Barry Pennock-Speck made this exercise with ExeLearning.
ExeLearning is a free app that can be used to create online close activities. A close activity is another name for a "fill in the gap" activity. It can also be used to upload a SCORM zip file to your Moodle. Here is an example of a close with audio for my phonology class:

Thanks Barry
