How do I add an H5P activity in my TITANium course?
You will learn how to add an H5P interactive content Activity to your TITANium course.
H5P enables you to easily create and display engaging HTML5-based instructional content and learning activities within your course. All you need is a web browser and the media and elements (e.g., video, audio, images, and your prepared text or quiz questions) that you will include in your H5P content. With H5P, you can build interactive course presentations, games, quizzes, charts, add social media or audio files, and embed interactions, navigation and quizzes into multimedia content such as images and videos. You can also organize large amounts of instructional content within H5P content, thereby reducing page clutter and scrolling. Learn more about H5P content creation here.
H5P content is linked to your TITANium course gradebook by default, giving you the ability to make any H5P activity or content type a graded assignment, while improving your learners’ engagement with your material.
