What is H5P?

Wendy Grymaloski

H5P is a technologically enhanced interactive learning tool used to create mobile-friendly, interactive HTML5 content. H5P also makes possible, interactive video, course presentation, flashcards, quiz question sets, documentation tools, and instructional text. H5P is a tool used to promote critical thought and construct knowledge

A Branching scenerio uses features such as still images or graphics, video, sound, and special effects to give learners the opportunities to make choices, reflect, adjust, and therefore construct their own knowledge.

We chose a branching scenario simulation called Skills Practice: A home visit. In this interactive simulation, the player assumes the role of a community health nurse assigned to complete a home visit with a fictitious but realistic client to mimic completing a mental health assessment.

CONCLUSION

Here are some main points we took away from our experiences with H5P

• takes time to design and build activities

• not always most effective for learning

• not always the right fit for your context

• unique, and has many other tools

• open source

• interactive and engaging
