What do you like best about H5P?

The variety of activities that can be built: many different tyoes of quizzes using words, images, videos. I also like that the interface is pretty straight forward to use and does not require any codien skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H5P?

The integration with Moodle is not great. By that I mean that you still need some basic coding skills to make the activity appear in the flow on the course. I would like an easier way of adding H5P activities in the flow of the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use H5P to create drop downs in our Moodle online courses to stro in foramtion in a structure way. We also use it to create activities and quizzes that we had as part of our online m,asters degrees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H5P?

H5P activities help to add interactivity to an online course. The assignments can boost learner engagement and prevent a class from feeling "stale." There are a lot of different activity types to choose from. It is a relatively easy system to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H5P?

H5P needs to build more flexibility into many of the activity types. There are very few options in the settings menu for how the instructor wants to deliver the grade. For example, there isn't an option to restrict the number of attempts on an activity. This alone would be a big help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving the issue of learner engagement. Students need more stimulating exercises when faced with an online educational environment because they don't have the opportunity for face-to-face interaction with their instructor or their peers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish we could host the H5P content on the site without a fee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps create interactive content for our school. It helps with different types of assessment because we can choose to have the content create marks or have it only for practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H5P?

Can usually find a type of activity that matches my needs. Content is also responsive on mobile screens and can easily be shared by embedding or LMS integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H5P?

Some activity types are strangely missing or limited. e.g.'Matching Words' should allow for only some words to be selected, not all. Also, needs to integrate with image libraries like Unsplash and Shutterstock. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

Learners need practice activities that are web-based and accessible on mobile devices. H5P solves those problems and learners engage with content very comfortably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H5P?

H5P allows you to create classic activities for your students (fill in the blanks, drag the answer, record it in audio, crosswords...), but also other types of activities that would never have occurred to me (virtual tours, for example). They also constantly release new activities and improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H5P?

If you create activities regularly, they can take up quite a bit of space on your hosting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me create interactive and entertaining activities for my students. It is a great advantage if you want to assign them homework and have them work independently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about H5P?

I am using H5P in coordination with Moodle LMS. This software creates interactive videos where we can add reflection spots questions in your won video or video from YouTube. The best part is easy to use. Not much training is required to learn the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H5P?

There is noting in this software to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H5P:

Yes. Most of the education is now online due to Covid19 impact. This software must be used by all the teachers to create videos with interaction. this will create interest among students. This software is easy to use and can be installed on Moodle or WordPress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H5P solving and how is that benefiting you?

H5P solves the big problem of delivery of video content to students. Most of the students do not watch full lecture video. They just scroll forward and do not watch it seriously. But if we using interactive videos which has inbuilt questions and we may remove forward backwards scrolling option created seriousness in students. Due to this the motive of teaching is achieved. This H5P can be installed on Moodle LMS as a plugin and it is free. There are many types of questions available like MCQ, True False, Match the Pairs etc. We can get scores of the students at the end of the video. we can use our won videos or the videos from YouTube with Creative common license. This creates the simplicity in the use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
