October 2023 Release note
New version of The Chase
The Chase is a better looking and more engaging way to present H5P questions. It is now more versatile, catering to more learning scenarios with three distinct modes. In the Chase mode learners go through all the content as fast as possible and solutions are explained at the end. In Page by Page, learners go through one page at a time and solutions are explained per page (similar to for instance Kahoot). In Self Pace Mode, learners go through all the content at their own time and get to see a leaderboard at the end.
The Chase is a content type that is available via H5P.com. H5P.com is created by the H5P Core Team and is the main source of income for the H5P Core Team.
These improvements were sponsored by Victoria University.
