Issue 14: Lack of function to define the input language

Issue Summary

In some modules like Assessments or Assignments it happens that students need to write in a language other than the default language (English). There is no mean to define the input language. If the reader of the information that is not tagged with proper language definition is a screen reader user, then he/she won't be able to read the information in the proper language mode.
