Body
H5P (short for HTML5 Package) allows faculty to create rich interactive learning activities within their eLearn course. It was created to empower people to create better content faster. There are up to 50 H5P interactives all of which can be embedded into eLearn course pages. When implemented, H5P interactives should be used for low-stakes knowledge building and practice, not major assessments such as mid-terms or finals.
