Today we have a special guest in terms of eLearning: H5P. What is H5P- and even before that what means H5P? H5P is the abbreviation of Html-5-Package, it is a plugin tool that helps produce and run interactive content and interactive video within your LMS, or other kinds of eLearning browser. This plugin is used more than 17.000 websites, and its idea behind it is rather very simple: Learn and share- but of course in html-5 format.

  1. Attract a large worldwide community of skilled people who create, use and share H5P-libraries with each other,
  2. Facilitate worldwide sharing of a large variety of HTML-based content and technologies,
  3. Make it easy for content creators to deliver and publish HTML content on different CMS, LMS, LCMS and other frameworks,
  4. Contribute to better HTML5 content by making it even easier to cooperate and reuse great web technology.
