UH H5P Programs and Pathways
About UH H5P
What is UH H5P?
H5P is an authoring tool used to transform course content into a wide range of learning activities like interactive videos, quizzes, games, presentations, and more. In 2021, University of Hawaiʻi piloted the use of H5P.com licensed accounts with a cohort of faculty and staff across nine campuses. The group successfully integrated H5P activities into Laulima courses to engage students and track their progress through integrated gradebook items. Since then, additional program pathways have been created to encourage alumni mentorship and offer independent user options.
