I had the opportunity to present in an ELT conference in Turkey and introduced H5P as the next generation web-based tool to create interactive contents to help students in their language learning process.

Spread the word!

Great!

The H5P community is growing quickly and we're considering writing about H5P "ambassadors" spreading the word around the world. Would you like to be part of a blog post about a couple of ambassadors spreading the word?

Yeah! Why not? I also take part in an Erasmus+ project (http://www.tellop.eu) which focuses on mobile learning and using open educational resources. I mentioned H5P to my friends in one of our meetings, too. 

Best,

Cool! We'll get back to you then. It won't be in this newsletter, but we're considering it for the next one.

I  am a teacher, I use h5p in my classroom with my students. I am presuing my school to adapt h5p I would love to take part of this.  furthermore our school expands over 9 campuses with the plan to open another 3 campuses from kg to grade 12 and population of 2000+ at each campus.  The school adminsiteration is considering issuing ipads to all students. 

H5P has so much to offer and I would love to be part of you team to speard the word to other schools as well. 

You are doing amazing work .. as an educator I can't image any classroom without the uses H5P in the future.

All the best

Thanks a lot farrisimin!

Any ideas on what kind of angle we should take on this? I'm thinking about pictures of a couple of ambassadors and a story or interview below. A video would obviously be much better, but also harder to produce and maybe not something that everyone gladely participates in.

Hi falcon I think a story with pictures would be a good idea and much easier to accomplish compare to a video .. a video would also be good idea specially an interview. .. another angle would be screen casts to help less technical users create h5ps I have started a little bank of screen casts to help some colleagues who are interested in using h5p but lack the how to.. maybe this would be part of documentation. .  I will be happy to share those as well... specially if a content type could be used in a new way to produce a different type of activities. ..

I believe as a teacher h5p is and will inspire an evolution in teaching methodology.

Ok, perhaps you guys could upload pictures of you here that I may use in a "Spread the Word!" blog post? You'll obviously get the chanse to approve the blog post before it gets published. I hope we'll be able to publish it this week so I appreciate it if you could upload your pictures quite quickly.

Great. I love the text and photos. I suggest something like this. Does it look ok? Feel free to edit it!

The idea is to have the presentation image in our news letter, a short text and a link to the post above. What do you think?

iercan's picture

Yeah. It looks great! Thanks!

:) Great! We'll be sending the newsletter tomorrow or tuesday I think. The newsletter currently has 2 420 recipients. It's great to include news from the community, and hopefully more people will be encouraged to spread the word :)

Hi falcon,

I would like to make a reflective h5p interview video, I have some cool ideas for example; 

My reasons for choosing h5p, over prezi, powerpoint, flash, or any other presentation delievery methods.

main points inculde: adapativity of h5p over all devices as it uses html5, ease of content making, enjoyment of learning by students, feedback from the learning community, engaging 1-on-1 learning, social interactions, ownership of learning, becoming a facilitator in comparsion to teacher focused teaching, providing an ongoing platform for learners that is always avialable, giving students goals, and recognizing and awarding achievements, how it is revolutionizing the learning experience by enriching the students in fully expanding the thought standards.

this list is really big what is your vision for the video interview? your guidence and advice are apprieciated 

Cheers

This sounds great. I would really, really love to create and publish such a video interview and include it in an upcoming newsletter.

So how can we get this done? I believe there are two ways. We could do a Skype interview and record it, or you could produce it without help from the H5P team if you have the means. I don't have any strong preferences. A Skype interview is more fun and might give a feeling of H5P users being spread around. A recording you make will potentially have higher quality. What do you think?

Also I think that for the June newsletter we will go for iercan's story since it is pretty much ready to run, and we will feature your video in the july/august newsletter.

and offcourse why would h5p succeed where other tools have failed having a full feldge curriculum thought using h5p ...

Hi falcon, 

I will have something by the end of this week fingers crossed. . It might need some polishing after. .

Cheers

Sounds great! Will be exciting to see what you'll come up with!

Yeah, interviewing yourself is probably an interesting experience. Looking forward to receiving it :)

Hi falcon,  hope I didn't forget anything on the video..

If you have anything to add I try to remake it..

falcon's picture

Thanks a lot for sending me the video!

You look very professional and there is a lot of great content there. We'll look at it more closely on friday. I'm thinking about dividing it into sections with questions in between the sections and probably also making it a bit shorter. Does this sound good? I don't know if we'll need any more video or not. There was some background noice on some of it but we might be able to filter it.

I'll get back to you.

Sounds great... 

falcon's picture

We haven't forgotten about this, but vacations and stuff make this take some extra time. Will get back to you as soon as we've made a suggestion.

See my comment below farrisimin. Do we have your permission to use the video? Can we also use it in social media and in our YouTube channel?

We expect to release the next version of H5P on monday morning if not too many new bugs are found.

falcon's picture

I'm sorry that we've been slow on this one farrisimin. Here is our first suggestion of an edited version of the video. What do you think?

Hi falcon, 

Great job, off course you have permission to use the video. Thumbs up.

falcon's picture

Ok, thanks! Don't hesitate to let us know if you want us to make adjustments!

I was thinking instead of farrisimin to use Fares Ibrahim I feel farrisimin is just an online name 

falcon's picture

Ok, we'll make that happen!

cheers
