I couldn’t resist the blooper. Kitten was meowing and scratching at the door but couldn’t quite work it out to have her present in the actual video. Next time. Ahhh conferencing from home. 2020 was the year of postponed and cancelled conferences, yet oddly, after a couple gap years for me there thankfully were some…

WordPress as eLearning Launchpad – H5P Roadshow 2021
Well, 2021 is shaping up to be a lot like 2020 as far as travel goes. Normally this time of year I’m getting ready to head to conferences in person. This year I’m participating in a few virtual conferences, and one of them I am I super excited to have been a part of is…
Using Hotspots and Invisible Buttons in E-Learning #296
I have a back catalogue of small instructional design challenges and charrettes that I’ve been meaning to build into something bigger one day. That is obviously taking too long, so here’s a new idea. The Articulate E-Learning Heroes Community runs a weekly eLearning Challenge. I’ve mentioned before that often different IDs in different contexts will use…

So, I didn’t know you could add animated GIFs to H5P’s juxtapose until today. I’m not sure how I overlooked this, but it really opens up some new possibilities.
No CMS? No Problem. H5P Can Stand Alone
I’ve been giving workshops and consults about using H5P for enhancing online learning content for maybe five years now. When I first started, we ran everything off of H5P.org and personal projects I worked on made use of the WordPress plug-in. There are a few questions that came up in early sessions that have not…
Getting H5P into Canvas without WordPress
One thing I’ve been trying to experiment with lately is getting H5P content types to work without having to fall ball on WordPress. Given my experience so far I think that is still my number one choice, after all I’ve been creating and sharing H5P activities that way for almost 5 years. Old habits are…
Breathing New Life Into an Old Machine

Brutalist Worksheets
Checking out the Oldaily I came across Brutalist Worksheets. Here, Downes refers to a piece by Will Gourley by the same name, and adds “Now this isn’t a new trend, as evidenced by his references to worksheets created by the vertical foot on the photpocopier, but anyone taking courses online will immediately make the conceptual…
