- The number of hotspots
- The placement of each hotspot, and the associated popup content
- The color of the hotspot

Course Presentation

Course Presentation

Course presentations consist of slides with multimedia, text, and many different types of interactions like interactive summaries, multiple choice questions and interactive videos. Learners can experience new interactive learning material and test their knowledge and memory in Course Presentations. As always with H5P, content is editable in web browsers, and the Course Presentation activity type includes a WYSIWYG drag and drop based authoring tool.

A typical use of the Course Presentation activity is to use a few slides to introduce a subject and follow these with a few more slides in which the user’s knowledge is tested. Course Presentations may however be used in many different ways, including as a presentation tool for use in the classroom, or as a game where the usual navigation is replaced with navigation buttons on top of the slides to let the user make choices and see the consequences of their choices.

Virtual Tour (360)

Virtual Tour (360)

360 (equirectangular) and normal images may be enriched with interactivities like explanations, videos, sounds, and interactive questions. The images may also be linked together to give the user an impression of moving between environments or between different viewpoints within the same environment.

This content type may be used to give a feeling of exploring and learning within a realistic environment. It includes an easy to use drag and drop authoring widget making it easy for everyone to create their own virtual tours.

Branching Scenario

Branching Scenario

Branching Scenario is a flexible content type that enables authors to present a variety of rich interactive content and choices to learners. Learners make choices that determine the content they will see.

The authoring tool can be used in full screen and allows authors to structure the content as a tree with multiple branches and endings.

Documentation Tool

Documentation Tool

The documentation tool aims to make it easy to create assessment wizards for goal driven activities. It can also be used as a form wizard.

While editing, the author can add multiple steps to the wizard. In each step, the author can define which content goes into that step. Content can be plain text, input fields, goal definition and goal assessment.

Once published, the end user will be taken through the steps of the wizard. On the last step of the wizard, the user can generate a document with all the input that has been submitted. This document can be downloaded.

The Documentation tool is fully responsive and works great on smaller screens as well as on your desktop.

See some examples.

Essay

Essay

The text which students created will be scanned for keywords that have been defined by an author before. Several options allow to make this rather simple approach still quite flexible for giving feedback.

Authors can restrict the number of characters that the students may use to cover all the important aspects of a given topic. This way they can stimulate cognitive efforts that are needed to distinguish between important facts and less relevant details. Also, authors cannot only award points for keywords that have been found (multiple times), but they can provide verbal feedback. If a crucial keyword is missing, one could e.g. point out that an important aspect seems to have been neglected and should be considered when writing the next iteration of the text. On the contrary, if a keyword is found, one could praise the student and confirm the significance of the aspect which the word represents.

The content type does not replace grading by teachers, but could assist them.

Summary

Summary

Summaries help the learner remember key information in a text, video or presentation, by actively buliding a summary about the topic at hand. When the learner has completed a summary, a complete list of key statements about the topic is the end result.

Fill in the Blanks

Learners fill in the missing words in a text. The learner is shown a solution after filling in all the missing words, or after each word depending on settings.

Authors enter text and mark words to be replaced with an asterix. In addition to native and second language learning, Fill in the blanks can be used to test the learner's ability to reproduce facts or produce mathematical inferences.

Quiz (Question Set)

Quiz (Question Set)

Question Set is your typical quiz content type. It allows the learner to solve a sequence of various question types. You can combine many different question types like Multichoice, Drag and drop and Fill in the blanks in a Question set. As an author there are many settings you can use to make it behave just the way you want it to. You may for instance customize the Question set with background images and define a pass percentage for the learner.

The Question Set also allows you to add videos that are played at the end. One video for success, another if the learner fails the test. This might motivate learners to try again if they fail so that they get to see the success video.

See some examples.

Interactive Video

Interactive Video

Videos may be enriched with interactivities like explanations, extra pictures, tables, Fill in the Blank and multiple choice questions. Quiz questions support adaptivity, meaning that you can jump to another part of the video based on the user's input.  Interactive summaries can be added at the end of the video. Interactive videos are created and edited using the H5P authoring tool in a standard web browser.

See some examples.
