Description

Dialog cards can be used as a drill to help learners memorize words, expressions or sentences. On the front of the card, there's a hint for a word or expression. By turning the card the learner reveals a corresponding word or expression.

Dialog cards can be used in language learning, to present math problems or help learners remember facts such as historical events, formulas or names.

Hi Ka75,I don't think there

Hi Ka75,

I don't think there are plans for this but thanks a lot for contributing your ideas on how to make H5P better! We’re now working on something called the H5P supporter program allowing the H5P community to vote for and fund the top voted H5P features. Also there are developers in the community who every now and then works on a feature they find interesting or useful. In order for your feature request to attract as much interest as possible make sure it follows the below guidelines:

It is clear from every perspective how the feature will work. We recommend describing the feature with one or more user stories, for instance “As an author I want it to be possible to pick between different effects for the check answer animation so that the learners will see a variety of effects and also I can adapt the effects to my target audience(I’ll be using pink unicorns which works really well for both my target audience which are 4 year old girls and venture capitalists)”
If the feature can be illustrated with images or videos it always helps
Make it clear what content types this is relevant for, and or if this is a new content type

Make sure you post the feature in the Feature Request forum.

Delete card from deck (for now)

Learning words is a lot of practice. For me the Dialog Deck is missing a button to delete a card from the deck (until I restart the deck). When practicing words some words will be clear to me in 2 or 3 times, and those words can be removed from the deck. Making the deck smaller with only the difficult words there.

It would be nice to turn the card, and find a button there NEXT (going to the next card, with the front site visible) or a button REMOVE CARD (removing the card for the rest of the exercise).

This probably should be an option to choose while creating the deck.

Hello! I'm using dialogs

Hello! I'm using dialogs cards for my students to memorise words from Japanese. I want them to practice both ways (card showing Japanese->solution in Russian and vice versa). At this point I have to create two sets of cards. Is it possible to reverse the question/answer in the same set of cards?

Hi kitsunegakkou,

This is not possible with the current features of dialog cards. It is however a great idea and I suggest that you post a feature request. In order for your feature request to attract as much interest as possible make sure it follows the below guidelines:

508 Compliance

Hello team,

I'm working on a Moodle project for the department of education and some of our partners would like to use H5P interactive elements for the site. Before adding the H5P plugin for Moodle to the site we had a quick 508 review done for the elements they were interested in using. According to the feedback we received from the 508 reviewer, the speaker button for the Dialog Card is missing it’s accessible name. I believe he is referring to the button you can press for audio in the sample above. The markup for this button is currently as follows:

<button class="h5p-audio-minimal-button h5p-audio-minimal-play"></button>

I am familiar with the process for creating renderer overrides in Moodle but reading through the documentation it isn't clear to me if we actually have the ability to override / supplement the markup for these H5P elements. I'd like to add an aria-label or name attribute to this button. Is that something I can do?

Thanks,
Jay

It is possible to override

It is possible to override but a bit cumbersome in this instance. It would be much easier just fixing the problem in the code here: https://github.com/h5p/h5p-audio/blob/master/scripts/audio.js#L60
I know this has been mentioned in multiple posts, so hopefully, it will be fixed soon.

I was wondering if it is possible for the image to appear on only the answer side of the cards, rather than both.

RE: Audio for both sides

This can be a set flashcards with word and definition on the side. For language learners and accessibility, it would be helpful to have the audio available on both sides.

Making dialog cards mandatory

Hi, a question just came up from a fellow content creator on using the Dialog card interaction. As part of a Course presentation, is it possible to make an embedded Dialog card a required element? That is, that the user would not be allowed to proceed without turning the card? We were unable to find this setting. Would the Flash card be a better alternative for this purpose?

Thanks for your help!

Mon, 09/02/2019 - 21:08

Hi marjaanaj,Course

Hi marjaanaj,

Course Presentation does not have the feature to force a user to answer/pass a content before proceeding.

Text overrides and translations

Hello,

I am running Dialog Cards (1.8.2) on H5P 1.15.0 on WP 5.3. In the configuration for the dialog card content there are options under >Text overrides and translations >Dialog Cards such as "Text for the turn button", "Text for the incorrect answer button", and "Text for the correct answer button". I am unable to see many of the buttons listed when viewing the cards. I am able to see the turn, next and previous buttons but not the correct, incorrect, show summary or most of the other buttons/features in this list. How can I enable these buttons/features? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Best Regards,

Will

Thu, 11/14/2019 - 19:09

Hi Will,Most of the these

Hi Will,

Most of the these labels are used if you change the mode to repetition rather than normal. Some of them are screen reader specific "labels".

audio in dialog cards

Audio shows in the recto-side or front-side of the cards.
When using this type of exercise in language courses it would be useful to have the audio on the other side. This way the learner can hear the solution instead of the question.

Would that be possible?

Thanks

Georges

two separate image's

Is it in any way possible to have two different images, one on each side? So I mean to have image A on the front and then when you flip the card, it shows image B on the back instead of image A.

This would be increadibly useful to my usecase.

TIA

Big improvements needed

Would really love this content type to allow:

Left-justified texts
Tables
Image to be on the question side, or answer side or both sides of the card.

If it is possible, how can I change/edit the code to allow this?

Using Moodle, not yet knowledgeable in overriding codes/css, but willing to do it, as my project is based on these functionalities.

H5P Dialog cards

I have added Dialog cards to a test page and generally, they are exactly what I want. However, I have 2 problems. First, when I try to add an image to a Dialog, it prompts me for a file from my local PC rather than my online media library. Not sure if I am doing something wrong or not. Second, I would like to change the font size of the question/answer. I have tried customizing the appearance through Wordpress/Appearance/Customise and also via a Custom CSS plugin with no success. It seems to me that either H5P does not support the native CSS customisation or my CSS reference is incorrect (the most likely cause). Can anyone provide an example of overriding the font size? Also, how do I get the Dialog image from my media library?

Thanks

Geoff

Mon, 07/06/2020 - 18:45

Hi Geoff,Regarding the image

Hi Geoff,

Regarding the image upload you are correct currently the only way is to upload from the local PC.

For the CSS concern I suggest that you post this in the forums there is more traffic there and I would suggest that you post the code that you used. My coding skills are novice at best so for this specific issue I'm unable to help I'm sorry.

Wrong calculation of repetitions

Hi everybody,

I believe that "Dialog Cards" does not correctly calculate the cards' repetitions, neither of known cards nor of not known cards.

To demonstrate this issue, which is a little bit complicated to reproduce, I have set up a test page with some explanations of the settings.

flash card with word dragging

Our school teaches indiginous language, with an emphasis of teaching using only the language whenever possible.

A combination of the flash card and drag the word, where a picture is presented, with a recording or the word, with an opportuntiy to drag words in the language would be a good reinforceement.

Would it flash card with an image, an audio file that could be played, and a selection of words to be dragged to confirm the selected word.

In addition a set of images, each with an audio recording, that could be dragged to a single word, would be another way of reinforcing.

The language uses apostrophes in its work a great deal.

I'm in Canada , many of the First Nation languages use syllabics, Being able to present words in ssyllabics would be very beneficial

Hi nosheenirshad,

The easiest way is to use a PHP hook, to add your own CSS-file to the content type. Please visit the Visual Changes page for more details.

Card reset in "Repetition" mode

I am using the dialog cards in "Repetition" mode. According to the developer of this element, the learner's progress on that H5P task should remain in place unless they click the Start Over button. So a user should be able to practice, then come back to the site later to continue their practice. However, in my test, when the page is refreshed my progress is lost and I'm back to round one with all cards. See: https://www.screencast.com/t/diOD0tQDRl

In addition, I'm logged in as an admin and the system is not recording my progress on the H5P "My Results" page. You can see in the video above that my last results were recorded on April 4th and today is April 6th. I tried to see if the "Save Content State" option was on, but I can't find that setting anywhere.

Is there a setting or something else that I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,

Eric

Links in Dialogue Card text fields not saving

Hi! I'm able to call up the URL 'add link' dialogue box by using Ctrl+K for highlighted text. I'm able to complete the dialogue box.

Feature suggestion

Hello! I have an idea for an even more interactive experience. One side of the flashcard would display a word’s translation, along with a fill-in-the-blank sentence in the target language to practice using that word. The other side would reveal the correct answer within the sentence and provide the option to listen to the full sentence with the word filled in correctly. I’m basically looking for a combination of two features—dialog cards and flashcards—to make language learning more engaging.
