H5P

h5p logoYou can use H5P - a collection of interactive web tools - directly in Moodle. 

To start, click on "Add a new activity or resource" where you would like to include interactive content. Use the activity chooser to select the "H5P" option. On the "Adding a New H5P" page, click the link to your content bank to find H5P modules you have created already, or to click the "New" button and create a brand new one.

It's worth having a look at what H5P can do before you begin, however, because there are over 40 options available. Some of our favorites include Interactive Video, Image Hotspots, Image Juxtaposition (a great before-and-after effect), or an interactive Course Presentation. But these are just a few! Please don't hesitate to browse the examples at H5P.org, or to set up a consultation with a member of the EdTech team; we would love to help you build interactive course moments.
