ASC adopts H5P tool for Use in Carmen

In December 2021 the College of Arts and Sciences, along with several other colleges and units across the university, purchased licenses to H5P, an open-source e-authoring tool that allows for the creation of a variety of interactive content types that can accommodate a range of needs. With the addition of H5P – an abbreviation of HTML5 Package – ASC can provide educational resources in the form of interactive videos, course presentations, books, branching scenarios, virtual tours, dialog cards, and a range of quiz question types, among others. Each of these content types provides instructors with an opportunity to build course content that reflects Universal Design for Learning principles, including enhancing student engagement, incorporating multiple means of representation, action, and expression, providing authentic materials and experiences, and much more.
