PYTHON: nosetests import file path with multiple modules/files

I'm currently working through LearnPythonTheHardWay and have reached Exercise 48 which details Nosetests. I am able to perform a unit testing as long as all of the code is in a single python.py file. However if I include other files as part of a program, i.e. use import and then attempt to nosetest such a project I am getting an error, as follows:

======================================================================

FAILED (errors=1)

The structure of my project directories are as follows:

ex48/
  ex48/
     scanner.py
     temp.py
  __pycache__/
  tests/
     __init__.py
    scanner_tests.py

My scanner_tests.py file is as follows:

from nose.tools import *
from ex48.scanner import lexicon
from ex48 import temp

def test_directions():
    assert_equal(lexicon.scan("north"),[('direction','north')])
        result = lexicon.scan("north south east")
        assert_equal(result, [('direction', 'north'),
                          ('direction', 'south'),
                          ('direction', 'east')])

My scanner.py file is as follows:

   import temp

   class lexicon:
       def scan(val):
          if(val == "north"):
              return [('direction', 'north')]
          else:
              return [('direction', 'north'),
                      ('direction', 'south'),
                      ('direction', 'east')]

    runner = temp.temp("hello")

And finally my temp.py file is as follows:

   class temp(object):
       def __init__(self,name):
           self.name = name
       def run(self):
           print "Your name is; %s" % self.name     
    runner.run()

My question is how to overcome the ImportError: No Module named 'temp' because it seems as if I have imported the temp.py file in both the scanner.py file and the scanner_tests.py file but nose does not seem to be able to import it when it runs. Nosetests works fine when its just the single scanner.py file but not when importing. Is there a special syntax for importing into a unit test for nose? The script also works fine when run and imports properly at the command line.
