The Faculty Innovation Center is excited to announce that monthly training on H5P continues, with the upcoming June 21 training focusing on H5P Flashcards. Flashcards are a set of cards containing a picture on one side of the card and a corresponding text on the other side. The learner is asked to type a word or expression corresponding to the picture, before turning the card over and revealing the correct answer.
What are some uses for H5P flashcards?
They can be used as a drill to help learners memorize words, expressions, or sentences. This makes them especially useful when learning a new language. Flashcards can be used to present math problems or help learners remember facts such as historical dates, formulas, or names. Flashcards can also spice up text heavy pages and increase student engagement in your course.
Typical Flashcards provide a prompt on one side of the card, and an answer on the other side. You can use text, an image or both for the prompt. If you add alternative text, your flashcards can be read by a screen reader, making them accessible.
Visit H5P flashcards for more information and a tutorial if you wish to try them on your own.
