H5P: Editing Content

Updated on May 29, 2024

About

If an instructor intends to edit H5P content, it is advisable to do so before students complete their interactions. In cases where students have already engaged with the H5P, make sure to download the report before editing to maintain a record of student interactions and their scores.

Note: H5P activities can be edited after students have interacted with them, but editing the activity will cause loss of student responses. For this reason, it is highly recommended that you do NOT edit H5P items after students have interacted with them.
