2024-2025 H5P + LMS Program
Updates & Resources
Note: The 2024-2025 H5P + LMS Cohort has concluded as of April 2025. Visit the Lamakū+ (formerly called H5P + LMS) program page for information on the latest cohort and status.
What is H5P + LMS (formerly H5P + Laulima)?
The H5P + Laulima program began as a direct result of numerous UH faculty and staff inquiring and advocating for a diverse tool that could increase student interaction and engagement. There was also a need for the tool to integrate smoothly with the Laulima Gradebook to ensure efficiency while increasing student learning for online instructors. A cross functional collaboration of UH ITS administrators and staff, along with instructional designers across the UH System was formed to jointly explore the H5P tool and determine its functionality within Laulima.
Since the initial pilot cohort in 2021, the program has expanded to incorporate additional UH H5P programs and pathways, and the first-year program was renamed to H5P + LMS to support the UH system transition from Laulima (Sakai) to Lamakū (Brightspace by D2L) learning management system.
