Sake, thanks for this. Not sure if I’ve responded. I gave it a couple of minutes and then was interrupted. Before i return to it, I wonder if you have used it, and whether it’s got the capability of having the activity results emailed or tracked.



H5P:  Are you able to describe how you use it a bit more, such as the platform you use (Moodle, Canvas, something else)? If you have a few minutes and could speak by phone, that also would be great. Thank you again.



Jeff

Hi Jeff,



I have been using H5P with my students in a CALL course. It works very well for what you have in mind. I have started using it as a replacement for Hot Potatoes, but H5P also allows you to use pictures, interactive videos, etc. You can even use it for videoconferencing, all in the context of your course. Development is on the H5P site if you like and then you embed the code in your VLE. If you want further integration (e,g. tracking learner results), you will find that it has integrations with Moodle, WordPress and some other CMS/VLEs.



You may also want to take a look at another tool: https://learningapps.org/.

Jeff, I wonder if you have looked at Moodle as an LTI provider? In theory, that should make it possible to embed a Moodle course into another website/LMS, and as long as that platform supports LTI, identify and grades shouldn’t be an issue. According to this discussion thread (admittedly, a couple of years old), you can even embed specific quizzes into another site: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=255329.



Sincerely,

    I hope to create a bank of online, multimedia activities for my language students, and possibly another for students of a linguistics course. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good tool/platform to use? Here is my wishlist of features:





      *   easy interface to create—no coding

      *   low-cost or no cost

      *   portable: if the original host or site closes, the activity can be placed elsewhere easily

      *   auto-graded

      *   maybe a gradebook

      *   results emailable to instructor

      *   other minor features, such as randomized questions, timed answers, etc.



    This is lots to ask—just hoping for something that comes close. I hope to make this a public resource if it is successful.



    A tech detail:  I’ve been reading that SCORM-conformant quiz-type activities means that they are portable (can be moved from, say, a Canvas site to a personal site to Moodle, etc.). However, now I’ve also seen that the post-SCORM world is Tin Can API (or xAPI), and that this new standard can be met by a variety of authoring tools. One example I’ve read about is WordPress using the free H5P authoring tool. Maybe some LLTIers have used this, or something like it?



    My reading is way ahead of my experience in this, so any comments are welcome… Thanks.
