H5P in LearnJCU

H5P is an external tool that has been integrated into LearnJCU. It affords the creation of interactive and rich web content that can enhance learner-content interactions in your subject site.

According to Moore (1989), there are three kinds of interactions in distance education:
  • learner-learner
  • learner-content
  • learner-teacher.

Moore proposed that the more of these three types of interactions, the more effective the learning experience. Bernard et al. (2009) confirmed this, finding that the more interactions in a subject, and in particular of the learner-content and learner-learner types, the higher the academic achievement.
