Parallel sessions | 11:30-12:10Room 2Creative builder lab Personalize Interactive Videos with Learning Paths Dr. Amos GlennDescriptionHow can instructional videos better adapt to the viewer’s interest? In learning, motivation is key. Instructional videos are engaging and video tutorials are some of the best means of training, but as soon as the video moves into territory that doesn’t interest the viewer, the likelihood of completing the video drops. Viewers use fast-forward or jump to random points in the video attempting to find the right content. Videos are sometimes split into smaller and smaller microlearning videos to target interests, but that requires the viewer to successfully navigate from video to video—which each click decreasing the likelihood of continuing. The information a viewer is seeking my also change in real-time as the viewer learns new information through the video itself. PresentersDr. Amos Glenn Instructional Designer - University of Pittsburgh 11:30-12:10Room 3Teaching Exploring to Educate: Empowering Faculty & Students Through a Simulated Virtual Lab Tour Sarah Wendorf+ 1 moreDescriptionSimulations and games have proven to be one of the top three most effective digital learning strategies for adult learners over the past decade (Davis et al., 2018). Discover how a small college in northern Ontario is empowering faculty and students to “learn before doing” through simulations using H5P technology. Learn how an Instructional Designer, Multimedia Specialist, and Graphic Design Student partnered with faculty from the Dental Hygiene Program to design a simulated walking tour of the Dental Reprocessing Lab. Students are led through the lab to learn step-by-step how to process and sterilize dental equipment so that it is safe to use on future patients. With a 360 camera, a smartphone, and H5P Virtual Tour (360), the team quickly and easily created an engaging and educational experience for students to gain knowledge and understanding of the lab equipment and process before physically entering the lab space. Join us to learn more about our process of designing the simulation, student feedback about the experience, and how participants could use this technology in their own areas of work.

Parallel sessions | 12:20-13:00Room 1Creative builder lab PowerPoint to H5P without the copy-paste drudgery Mr Martin BrownDescriptionEducators have been using Powerpoint to plan, prepare and present learning for decades. So, when a tool like H5P comes along, educators may well start thinking about how they can transform their PowerPoint presentations into interactive content using H5P. PresentersMr Martin Brown Project Coordinator - AMES Australia DescriptionStudent demographics suggest performance in our university courses is impacted by students’ work commitments and long distance commutes. Teaching staff have limited time during the teaching semester to grade assignments and provide individualised feedback to students. We set out to make our pathology teaching more engaging and accessible for students, whilst not increasing teaching load. PresentersDr Rachelle Singleton Professional Teaching Fellow - University of Auckland 12:20-13:00Room 3Teaching H5P for Building Motivation and Developing Assessments in a Higher Ed Language Course Professor Jeff RuthDescriptionThis presentation will report on the use of H5P for two purposes in a US higher ed Spanish course. First, students in two sections of a first-semester Spanish course were offered extra-credit toward their final course grade for creating useful H5P activities, shared with all students. This collaborative dimension allowed students to learn the course content more fully, and to establish a learning community of greater solidarity. Examples of the created activities will be shown, and results of a survey of student attitudes will be shared. Both are promising. Second, H5P was also used to create Integrated Performance Assessments in place of traditional exams. These were made, administered and graded in Moodle. The pedagogical fit and reception by students was positive. The assessments will be shared. It is noteworthy that one of the course sections was face-to-face, the other distance ed, yet both saw similar results in each of the two H5P usage areas reported here. PresentersProfessor Jeff Ruth Professor of spanish - East Stroudsburg University |

Parallel sessions | 14:00-15:30Room 1Creative builder lab Engage and Educate: Digital Escape Rooms Ms. Tina Swanton+ 1 moreDescriptionEscape rooms have become a hot trend over the last few years for groups of people to collaboratively discover clues, solve puzzles, and accomplish tasks related to a specific goal. The use of escape rooms in education has also grown over the last few years. The idea of escape rooms in education naturally led to the design of creative learning activities in a “digital” escape room. H5P and the Canvas Learning Management System are the perfect compliment to each other and engage learners of all ages in an environment filled with gamification and higher-order thinking skills. And even better, learners love it! PresentersMs. Tina Swanton Digital Content Manager and Instructional Designer - Athlos Ms. Rachel Lee Principal Consultant - Instructure/Canvas

Parallel sessions | 11:30-12:10Room 1Creative builder lab Teaching Controversial Issues: An Interactive Video Showcase with Harvard Fellow Nate Otey Harvard Fellow Nate OteyDescriptionHarvard Fellow Nate Otey will demonstrate how he uses H5P interactive videos to teach argument mapping, which is a simple, research-backed method of helping people talk about controversial issues and build critical thinking skills. PresentersHarvard Fellow Nate Otey Fellow, Harvard Department of Philosophy and Lead Instructor ThinkerAnalytix 11:30-12:10Room 2Research Implementation of a Peer Assessment Content Type B.Sc. Christoph Hellmich+ 3 moreDescriptionH5P offers many possibilities to check the knowledge of the learners and to evaluate their solutions automatically. However, an automated evaluation quickly reaches its limits with complex tasks. A manual evaluation by the tutors would be possible in these cases, but is practically impossible with a large number of learners. PresentersB.Sc. Christoph Hellmich Web Developer - Deutsche Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) Martin Steber Deutsche Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) Sonja Klante Deutsche Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) Annika Clorius-Lehmann Deutsche Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) 11:30-12:10Room 3Integration Reimagining Português para principiantes as an Interactive Open Textbook: How H5P Helped Us Improve the Language Learning Experi Mr. Jared Hendrickson+ 2 moreDescriptionIn this session, we will share our experiences with publishing the first digital edition of Português para principiantes (https://wisc.pb.unizin.org/portuguese/), a free and openly-licensed textbook for anyone interested in learning Brazilian Portuguese. Creating this project involved digitizing a print text (the first edition of which was published at the University of Wisconsin-Madison more than 50 years ago), and then adding a series of enhancements to turn a legacy print textbook into a modern digital learning tool. For example, we incorporated more than a thousand audio files recorded by native speakers as well as hundreds of interactive self-check (formative assessment) activities built with H5P to allow both learners and instructors to get real-time feedback on student comprehension. Since its initial publication as an open textbook in September 2016, this book has been used by hundreds of students in four distinct courses at UW-Madison, has provided the curriculum for the Summer Intensive Portuguese Institute (SIPI), and has been adopted at Cornell University, by continuing education courses at the UW-Madison’s Division of Continuing Studies, and at several other institutions. H5P has allowed us to better align our pedagogical approach to what we know works best when learners are acquiring a new language, and has allowed instructors to focus more of their in-class time on higher-order learning activities. The use of repeated formative assessment and targeted practice has also been instrumental in allowing us to develop better blended and distance approaches to teaching Portuguese: for example, this past summer we were able to enroll a distance student in SIPI for the first time ever. H5P activities have been crucial to allowing us to build the kind of engaging, accessible, online learning materials that we needed to expand our distance language education program.

Parallel sessions | 12:20-13:00Room 1Research All-in-one-for-everyone: Interactive instructional videos for the combined study of a subject and the subject specific language Prof. Dr. Mike Altieri+ 1 moreDescriptionLearning and mastering the subject specific language, i.e. the jargon, of mathematics and natural sciences is a ubiquitous problem for science education that consistently arises in all education sectors. Most pupils and students experience the special language in science as challenging, due to the specific concepts, typical collocations and the specific grammatical structures that distinguishes the technical communication as very different from everyday communication (Rincke 2010). Therefore, the intentional training of the subject specific language has become an integral part of school lessons (LISUM 2013).For international students who prepare for or have begun a STEM study program in Germany, there is, however, no institutional provision for studying the subject specific language, so that international STEM-students often lack the competence to follow science lectures.For these issues, the project “Instructional Video 2.0 – STEM-international innovative” aims to develop interactive training material, based on h5p, for a time- and place-independent, autonomous study of the subject matters and the subject specific language for learners with different mother tongues and with heterogeneous knowledge levels. The project team consists of experts for didactics of mathematics and media, multimedia learning and German-as-a-Foreign-Language-Teaching. It has conceptualized the instructional videos “all-in-one-for-everyone” according to research-based guidelines for the design of instructions (Wittwer & Renkl 2008). Moreover, the conceptualization is guided by research-based principles of multimedia learning (Mayer 2009).In our talk, we will first present the deployment of h5p content types for the realization of an internally differentiated 4-part-structured interactive video with 1. a pre-training, 2. a “How-To-“-video-tutorial, 3. excercises, and 4. videoclips with conceptual explanations by the professor. This is followed by an overview of our partly creative solutions for the implementation of reading, writing, hearing and speaking exercises within the choice of content types within interactive h5p video. PresentersProf. Dr. Mike Altieri Professor - Hochschule Ruhr West Christiane Opfermann M.A. 12:20-13:00Room 2Integration Empowering Faculty: Training and Support of H5P at a Large University Arlene Mendoza-MoranDescriptionWhat does training and support of H5P look like at a large public university? Two years after installation of the H5P Plugin for Moodle, North Carolina State University has seen enthusiastic adoption by faculty looking to integrate interactive media seamlessly into their courses. Availability of H5P in Moodle has opened up a whole new world of interactive content delivery and student engagement opportunities, prompting the need for training and support for faculty to best utilize this powerful new creative feature. From hands-on workshops to technical documentation and tutorials, faculty have a range of support resources to help them effectively use H5P interactive content in their courses. This session will provide a brief description of the rollout process and discuss the resources created to support faculty in their use of H5P, followed by a discussion about issues and best practices for content creation, training and support, and maintenance of H5P at a self-hosted Moodle institution. PresentersArlene Mendoza-Moran Instructional Technologist - North Carolina State University Room 3Ignite DescriptionJames Cook University in partnership with Keypath Education Australia have developed a 100% online Bachelor of Education program built entirely in H5P and delivered through Blackboard Ultra. The first subject of which went live in August 2019 with great excitement. PresentersMs Tran Nguyen Learning Designer - Keypath Education Australia DescriptionH5P is an open source software project. What does that mean actually? You can have a look at the source code, you are allowed to modify it to better suit your needs, and you can even add more things such as new content types and share them with the world. Do I hear a "But I don't know how to code!" PresentersMr. Oliver Tacke IT freelancer and prolific H5P contributor |

Parallel sessions | DescriptionAt Career and Technical Education (CTE) colleges, students truly enjoy being out in the lab working on real-world, hands-on tasks. After all, that’s why many of these students decided to attend a CTE school. However, these same students often loathe being in a classroom lecture. PresentersMr Stuart Vanorny Instructional Design & Academic Technology Consultant Mr Daniel Klosterman Instructional Design & Academic Technology Consultant DescriptionISEA - Guatemala, one of the largest Guatemalan adult schools has been using H5P almost since it´s first releases. Today we have produced hundreds of learning objects for elementary and secondary students. Guatemala is one of the most impoverished countries in the world; there are more than 3 million people under 24 years age who haven´t finished elementary or high school; nevertheless there is an advantage, in a country with 15 million inhabitants there are 22 million telephone lines! About 60% sixty per cent of those lines are smarthphones. ISEA -Guatemala has been using that advantage to send H5P modules where students can get learning content that will adjust to any screen. I intend to show what is being done to help this people. PresentersSr Aroldo David Noriega Director - ISEA - GUATEMALA 16:00-16:40Room 3Research Get it together!: successes and challenges in integrating learning analytics across multiple platforms Professor David Topps+ 1 moreDescriptionNumerous attempts, across various studies and institutions, at distilling analytics from learning platforms have demonstrated how little data integration there has been between such systems. The world has moved towards big data, activity streams and tracking what people do. And yet, learning systems have not been able to provide the rich data needed to assess what learners and teachers actually do.

Parallel sessions | 12:20-13:00Room 1Teaching Using H5P Graded Assignments in Canvas to Increase Student Engagement Ms Amy Mangrich+ 1 moreDescriptionInteractive content can be used to increase students’ engagement with the course material or used to assess students’ comprehension. When H5P is integrated with a learning management system, like Canvas, activities can be automatically grading and the score pass-through to the course gradebook. However, while H5P activities can be graded assignments, they do not need to be used as the primary means to assess student learning. Instead, H5P activities can be used to promote curiosity and to strengthen a sense of connectedness to course concepts. H5P activities provide instant feedback to students, allowing them to self-assess their understanding of the course material. This gives students control over their learning processes and helps them feel competent to achieve their own learning goals. PresentersMs Amy Mangrich Teaching, Learning, and Technology Consultant - University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Ms Katherine Pinkowski Instructional Technologist - College of Letters and Science - University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee 12:20-13:00Room 2Teaching An impact of H5P on teaching and learning Russian at the University of Virginia Ms. Anna Borovskaya-EllisDescriptionThe proposed session will describe the project that develops new, interactive, video-based learning materials, including videos, activities, and assessments, for learners of Russian at the 1000-3000 levels at the University of Virginia. We use H5P as our platform through which to make and maintain these materials. A library of up-to-date video and audio resources allow students to solidify the vocabulary and grammar, develop their listening, reading and writing skills in tandem through captions and questions created for each particular video (depending on the task at hand), as well as a number of learning activities preceding and following the video clips. PresentersMs. Anna Borovskaya-Ellis Assistant Professor - Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, University of Virginia Room 3Ignite DescriptionIncrease content engagement by pairing high quality infographics and videos with H5P's Image Hotspots.

Parallel sessions | 16:00-16:40Room 1Teaching Spoken French Beyond the Classroom: a concrete example brought to life with the help fo H5P Dr Nicolas Hebbinckuys+ 1 moreDescriptionH5P has changed the way instructors in higher education teach by making it easy to create, share and reuse interactive content. The French Department at the University of Waterloo (Ontario, Canada) has adopted H5P to update content of both online and on-campus courses. Among these, our team has completed two stimulating projects: an Online Interactive Workbook and a brand-new funtastic Oral French course. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how we have reinterpreted our in-class material for the online version of the course with the help of H5P. In the first part, we’ll demonstrate concrete examples of how we combined course presentations and interactive videos to recreate the in-class atmosphere. Then, we will explore some stimulating H5P features that help students to master comprehension, one of the most important outcomes in any language course. Finally, we will also discuss the advantages of voice recognition. Thanks to H5P, pronunciation and grammar can now be reunited in one enjoyable activity. This presentation intends to provide its audience with a complete overview of two university level projects entirely created with the help of H5P. PresentersDr Nicolas Hebbinckuys Assistant Professor - University of Waterloo (Canada) Mr Kanstantsin Tsedryk Continuing Lecturer at the University of Waterloo 16:00-16:40Room 2Research Interactive videos and grammar acquisition among learners of Chinese in a Flipped Classroom setting Dr Hongying Xu+ 1 moreDescriptionLack of grammar competence will impact language accuracy, and further impact the comprehensibility of one’s language. As a result, interpersonal communication may become more difficult, if not impossible. Research shows that explicit teaching of grammar rules alone has little effect on people’s language acquisition, comprehension, or writing abilities. Explicit instruction only help learners get declarative knowledge. It is only through plenty of practice in communicative contexts that learners could develop their procedural knowledge. The Flipped Classroom instructional model frees more class time for the students to practice using grammar in communicative activities by moving the grammar instruction out of the class with videos, screencasts, and other supplementary exercises. Previous research has shown benefits of employing the Flipped Classroom model in facilitating language learning. Does the nature of learning materials provided outside of class play a role in improving students’ learning experience and learning results with other conditions controlled? This study compares the use of regular videos vs. interactive H5P videos in helping learners acquire grammar in a Flipped Classroom setting. Would learners be more engaged in active learning and thus have more positive learning experience? Two groups of beginning-level college students of Chinese will participate in this study, with exposure to both types of videos across several units by following a two by two design. Their comprehension and usage awareness of the target grammar patterns will be measured by contextualized exercises. Their experience of using these two types of videos will be collected via a questionnaire and follow-up interviews. This study hopes to provide a case study on the effectiveness of interactive videos in facilitating grammar acquisition in a setting where learners enjoy more autonomy. PresentersDr Hongying Xu Assistant Professor - University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Dr. Mingyu Sun University of Wisconsin-La Crosse 16:00-16:40Room 3Integration Developing Learning Analytics for High Proficiency Language Learners of Arabic, Korean, Chinese, and Russian Dr. Richard MedinaDescriptionThe Language Flagship Technology Innovation Center is currently leading a project focused on deploying an analytics architecture based on H5P content with Tech Center partner institutions. This pilot project is intended to identify high impact analytic strategies for assessing and monitoring learning interactions in language learning centered H5P content. The project will deploy a set of H5P content designed for high proficient language learners of Arabic, Korean, Chinese, and Russian. User interaction with the content will be captured in our host LMS (Moodle) and interfaced with our LRS.
