Core content types

H5P – a plugin to create interactive content – has a set of stable interactivities currently consisting of 38 content types offered via the eCampusOntario H5P Studio. While you are encouraged to explore the full menu, these few may be especially beneficial for Sustainable Tourism Future:

Accordian: Create vertically stacked, expandable items.


Chart: Quickly Generate accessible bar and pie charts.


Drag and Drop: Drag words or images into blanks (separate tools for words and images).


Question Set: Create a sequence of various question types.


Timeline: Create a timeline of events with multimedia.

New ways to engage

Branching: Think “choose your own adventure” within education.

Ryerson provides a wonderful example of H5P Branching in action

Dictation: Create audio samples for students to practise transcription.

Virtual Tour 360: Add question, texts, and interactions to 360 environments using only a web browser.

H5P and accessibility

As much as we may think multimedia assists in making information more accessible, there are challenges with multimedia and accessibility. H5P does its best to improve the accessibility of its content types, but a subset of types will always challenge and likely require an alternate presentation of the information. Keep up to date on H5P accessibility.
