The purpose of the H5P Pedagogy Guide is to explore the pedagogical timing—the instances—suitable for H5P interactive functionalities. In face-to-face teaching, there are natural pauses for questions, reflection, individual engagement, and interaction with concepts, and in online, hybrid, or self-paced digital formats, H5P can create similar interactive moments when needed.
The ID self-assessment tool helps evaluate current practices and identify development opportunities across four key competencies: Instructional Design Effectiveness, Time and Task Management, Collaboration and Relationship Building, and Strategic Thinking and Leadership.
The Hours of Instructional Activity (HIA) app is a quick and easy way to see how hours are distributed across types of activities throughout the entire course. Users can choose to view results in semester view or week view, allowing for a more generalized or granular look at learning time. Reports can then be printed out and shared with others, including students.
Pathways to Pedagogy (P2P) is a website developed to connect faculty with appropriate educational technology tools and teaching activities that meet their classroom needs. The site links Penn State-supported tech tools with teaching activities and shows how they work in real-world use cases from Penn State faculty.
