H5P Guides
Using H5P with Canvas by Instructure
H5P provides a very tight integration with Canvas through H5P.com.
The images above are screenshots of (1) grades from H5P.com in Canvas, (2) the H5P.com repository in Canvas, (3) editing H5P.com content in Canvas and (4) viewing H5P.com content in Canvas
With H5P.com content may be created from within Canvas, you get your own H5P content repository accessible from within Canvas and grades are stored in Canvas. H5P.com also provides analytics accessible from within Canvas so that teachers may see what the learners answered to the different H5P questions.
To get started with H5P in Canvas just go to H5P.com and start a 30 days free trial. You should make sure your Canvas admin is ready to set up the LTI integration.

Embed activities on Canvas pages instead of as an assignment
Is there a way to embed h5p items on a page instead of adding them as assignments when using the LTI?
Thanks!

I don't think there are any errors. I tried to load my canvas page in both Chrome and FireFox and got the same result. I am trying to embed a multiple hotspots image. I see it just fine on h5p.org, but on Canvas it only loads after refreshing multiple times or I hit the reuse/embed button.

Pricing
It would be helpful to know the cost before downloading the free trial. I think the service looks excellent, but I also don't want to use the time of the Canvas Admin at my University if this is something I cannot afford after the 30 day trial ends. Having been through the process of getting approval to use another program I pay for (SoftChalk), I know there is an IT process as well with privacy check, etc. Is it possible to receive information about whether an individual teacher can pay for an account, and if this is possible, the annual charge?

Thanks For Your Reply
Thanks for your reply. I am really interested in updates regarding single-author. I currently pay for a single-author for SoftChalk cloud, and I am looking at different ways to be innovative with course content...trying to keep up with the technical "times". I like the visual and interactions of your product which I think is essential for classes, especially online. Passive consumption of content definitely doesn't equal learning...appealing activities as learning tools are needed. I imagine you cannot provide me a specific date regarding the singler user, but do you think this may be offered within six months? I am just planning in my mind about the Fall 2019 semester.

Speak the Words into Canvas
Hello! I teach French and I love the "speak the words" activities in H5P. Speech recognition works quite well. However, once I embedded my H5P content into my Canvas page, it seemed like the microphone was no longer recognized even though it worked fine when I tested it directly in H5P (and I use Chrome). The button just stayed on "listening" and nothing happened. Do you know if this is a H5P or a Canvas issue? Any idea how I still could send the content I created to my students? Thanks for your help.

Hi millerjs,
This is happening because Chrome is not allowing access to the mic for cross-origin Iframes. You can read more about this here.
There is also a fix that the core team is working on but I am notsure when it will be released.

It comes with access to a 24/5 help desc and a growing amount of digital training resources. We're working on setting up a global partner network so that we can offer training as well, right now we offer webinars for an extra charge so that you can specify the level of training yourself. Many organizations have very advanced H5P users already and don't want external training, others do.

At the moment, when I set up an assignment, the video only appears at the end of all the text. Is it possible to move the video on the assignment page or specify some text to appear below it?

Are the security issues carried over?
Hi there,
I don't know practically anything about web development (so bear with me here), but I do know how easy it is for web developers to find the answers to H5P content. Is this still an issue when H5P is integrated into Canvas? I know how to find the client-side answers in the source code on H5P.com, but I'm having more trouble finding them in the Canvas pages with H5P content—which would be a really good thing! I just wanted to double check because I don't trust that my not being able to find the answers necessarily means that students can't cheat.

Adding interactions in Canvas - Is this possible?
Hi, I saw you can embed H5P interactions on Canvas pages. Would this hypothetical work?
Our module has 15 pages. Each page has several embedded H5P interactions. Students respond to each and aren’t allowed to advance to the next page until the previous page’s interaction is complete. At the end of the module they would receive credit in ONE assignment for having completed the set of 15 pages. I don’t want to have separate assignments (grades) for each page of interactions.
Thank you.

Hi Kevin,H5P.com can be
Hi Kevin,
H5P.com can be connected to any number of Canvas instances and an author from one Uni can add an author from another uni as a collaborator. If you have student authoring a staff member may set it up to allow students from both unis to work on the same content creation as well. There is no way for students to collaborate when answering content and when authoring you can't collaborate in real time. If two authors works on the same content at the same time the last one to save will be offered to save his or her version as a copy.
Grades will go into the respective gradebooks. Remember that Canvas only accept grades when LTI content is used as assignments. If you have the extra reporting all data associated with the answers will go there even if used on pages, modules or other things in Canvas.

Hi dsulearningdesigner,
I apologize for the inconvenience and the abrupt change.
Embedding has been turned off because the servers of H5P.org is unable to handle the load. You can read more about this here. The same link is also available on the message that you are getting when you try to access a page with an embedded content (sample page).
Furthermore H5P.org was never intended to host actual contents used for teaching, quizzes etc. it is to provide a way to test the contents prior to signing up for H5P.com or installing the plugin within Moodle, Drupal or Wordpress. This is clearly stated on top of the site whenever you are creating a content.
