H5P: Finding Existing Content
Why start from scratch when the content may already be created? Find and reuse as is, or revise and customize. Each piece of H5P content can be downloaded and imported into your Pressbooks-hosted book. You can also use the embed code and reuse the content outside of Pressbooks. You can also display the H5P created in Pressbooks on a web page including learning management systems (Fanshawe Online) pages using the embed code.
