Which H5P content types work well with xAPI?

Each content type has it’s own xAPI implementation so we’ve evaluated each content type separately. 

  • Course Presentation
  • Interactive Video (questions only, the video itself is not tracked).
  • Question Set
  • Column
  • Multiple Choice
  • True / False
  • Drag and Drop
  • Fill in the Blanks
  • Mark the Word

H5P is always improving and we hope to move more content types to our list of recommended types soon.

Connecting to H5P

The H5P xAPI plugin settings page can be found by navigating to Settings, then H5P xAPI. The settings page asks for your endpoint URL, username and password. In Watershed this username is called a key and the password is called a secret, follow these instructions to get your Endpoint, Key and Secret.

Configuring reports for H5P

This section offers examples of report reports most suited to H5P data.

Multichoice

Groups of multichoice questions are best presented in Watershed through the Activity Report. You can look at either all questions on a WordPress page, all questions in a question set or an individual question. When reporting on a question set, H5P additionally sends result data about the question set as a whole which is presented in the visualizations at the top of the Activity Report.

Simply create a new Activity Report and use the page, question set or question activity id in the Activities filter.

 Key questions answered: The Activity Report can be used to answer a lot of different questions about an assessment. See Interpreting an Activity Report.

Course Presentation

The H5P Course Presentation tells Watershed the time taken by learners completing the presentation. It tracks when the learner moves between pages and if the presentation includes questions, it reports an overall score. H5P Course Presentation data works well with the Interaction Count, Completion Count, Total Time and Timeline measures that (unless deleted) are included by default in Watershed organizations.
