Scenario-Based Learning tool in H5P

This presentation is about using the Scenario-Based Learning tool in H5P. This authoring tool allows you to build visual scenarios that can be used for teaching but could also be used by a student as an assignment submission. The University of Adelaide is currently piloting H5P in MyUni courses. In our presentation we will show some examples of what these look like and how easy they are to build. There are examples available at H5P.

Marcel Lavrencic, Manager, Learning Analytics

Marcel Lavrencic, Manager Learning Analytics
Student Insights Project outcomes and next steps

For learners and teachers alike, it can be extremely useful to have a visual overview of their activities with learning systems and how they relate to those of their peers or other actors in the learning experience. The aim of the project is to deliver a student-centred, user-friendly dashboard to enable students to acquire a better understanding of their progression in courses they are enrolled in. Also by providing real time or as close to real time information, students are able to reflect and develop positive learning and engagement strategies and encourage lifelong learning. The development process for project outcomes are centred on design by students, for students.

This presentation will outline the process leading to and highlighting findings from the semester 2, 2019 pilot in 10 first year courses.
