One of the great benefits with using H5P is that it gives you access to lots of different interactive content types.

Another great benefit with H5P is that it allows you to easily share and reuse content. To reuse content, you just download the H5P you would like to edit and make your changes – e.g. translate to a new language or adjust it to a new situation.

H5P is:

  • Open Source
  • Free to Use
  • HTML5
  • Responsive

Note that it is currently possible for people with programming skills to cheat in H5P interactions and obtain the full score without knowing the correct answers. H5Ps must not be used for exams or similar.

The H5P community is actively contributing to improve H5P. Updates and new features are continuously made available on the community portal H5P.org.

    Hi Guys,

    Overall I'm impressed with what the plugin can do. I've been doing some work on compiling an online course and have two questions/issues:

    1) I'm using a lot of interactive videos so that I can utilise the hotspots to create info pop outs (my video is based on a powerpoint presentation with the slides animated so I can control the timeline) how do I completely hide the video controls? I've located the css page in the developer view in chrome, altered the settings and tried adding the code into the custom css section of my moodle site but it doesn't make a difference.

    2) Questions in interactive videos and also questions placed into a course presentation are not updating the gradebook for correctly answered questions. I've added earlier submission screens in the interactive video so that I can make sure to submit answers where the video navigates away before the end of the timeline. It concerns me that not even the basic course presentation, which I've set up with 2 or three questions also doesn't pass the marks into the gradebook. what am I missing?

    Thanks,
    Fred

    Well, h5p latest on moodle 3.51 is not recording scores on the interactive video. The gradebook is just blank.

    @MAG II, thanks for reporting this. This is a bug in embedded content. I have created an issue for resolving it at https://h5ptechnology.atlassian.net/browse/HFP-2164 where you can follow along the progress of resolving it. There's also a temporary workaround suggested there.
    Please report any future bugs on the H5P.org forums.

    @Conor I'm not able to reproduce this. Could you please make a bug report at the H5P.org forums ( https://h5p.org/forum/9 ) with steps to reproduce this ?

    @fred hunter, Our content is inside an iFrame so you can not change it by just adding CSS in your theme. You have to override our plugin renderer, you can find more information about this at: https://h5p.org/moodle-customization.

    @fred hunter, For your second question, I'm not able to reproduce this. Answers are successfully registered in the gradebook when entering the result screen for Course Presentations. Note that only students' answers will appear in the gradebook, so you'll not be able to see your grades as a privileged user, this is Moodle native functionality. If you're still not able to see students' answers please make a bug report at the H5P.com forums ( https://h5p.org/forum/9 ) with detailed steps on how to reproduce this.

    Hi Lee,
    I've tested the latest H5P version with the Fordson theme and have seen no complications. Please check your browser's console and your php error log to get a better grasp of what is going wrong on your site. If you still think it is because of H5P, please post a bug report to https://h5p.org/forum/10, which is a better medium for bug reports, together with more information about what you've found in your logs and how you are able to reproduce it, so that we may help you swiftly.

    I'm wondering how to use the XAPI & Reporting features of this plugin. I notice there are xapi-collector.js & xapi-custom-report.css and reporting folder in this plugin. But I find nowhere to set sending logs to XAPI logs store server and find nowhere to view relevant reports.

    Hi wz, H5P does not provide logic for sending xapi events to arbitrary xapi log store servers, H5P just sends the events out so that you can catch them. You would have to build, or make use of an existing, module that catches the xAPI events, and then sends it on to your xAPI log store server. Please read our documentation for more info: https://h5p.org/documentation/for-authors/analyzing-results-and-answers. You can also see an example of how this can be implemented in JS in the moodle plugin: https://github.com/h5p/h5p-moodle-plugin/blob/stable/xapi-collector.js, where the xAPI statement is captured from the external dispatcher, then posted to the xAPIResult endpoint where it is stored in the database. Good luck smile

    @Thomas Marstrander Thank you, Thomas! I also notice this plugin created a table mdl_hvp_xapi_results, but I only found 13 rows data in it, no timestamp info.I tried answering some questions in 2 initeractive videos. But no more data generated in the mdl_hvp_xapi_results table. So I don't know how these data can be saved into database.

    Hi wz, in Interactive Video you have to click the "star" on the timeline, which brings up the score screen, where you can click "Submit Answers" if you have answered questions in the Interactive Video. The score will not be saved in the xapi results table before you click this button. If you have any more questions, please ask them in the H5P.org forums (https://h5p.org/forum), which is a better suited medium for support. Thanks
