New content type: Personality Quiz

In this release, we’re pleased to present Personality Quiz, an exciting new content type developed by Lumenia, a student company in Norway. Personality Quiz may be used for entertaining quizzes like "Who are you in Game of Thrones", or in our case "Which berry are you?" See it in action below.


Personality Quiz is developed by Lumenia, a Norwegian student company.

To build a personality quiz, the author defines a series of questions which present the user with several alternatives. Each potential choice is matched against one or more personality types, so that when the user completes the quiz, the personality type which best matches their responses is displayed for them.

Want to use the Personality Quiz on your own site? Get it here.

Moodle Release Candidate

At long last, H5P has been approved and made available in Moodle's plugin directory. We’re hopeful that many more moodlers will now be able to find and embrace H5P! We’re especially pleased to see that it received a Reviewer’s choice award, which is only given to “particularly useful, well coded or otherwise interesting plugins” :)

Accessibility Improvements

In this release, we’ve also focused  on making sure that the Arithmetic Quiz content type conforms to WCAG 2 AA requirements and has good WAI-ARIA coverage.

The H5P community is constantly working on improving accessibility.

We want to give a big thank you to the participants in the WWW/W4A Hackathon for kickstarting this by creating pull requests which addressed some of these issues. Take a look at the results below, and please leave your thoughts :)

While the accessibility of the Question Set content type was greatly improved in a previous release, some accessibility issues weren’t addressed until this release. Specifically, we’ve now completed the following: 

  • Finished button accessibility
  • Improved navigation accessibility
  • Reworked the solution mode to address accessibility issues

If you still see any accessibility improvements needed for this content type, please leave a comment!
