Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

H5P enables you to quickly create rich, interactive, and adaptive content with game mechanisms as part of a formative assessment which can enhance your course as the engagement would be increased. More information about the tool can be found on the H5P support site<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we will show you how to download an H5P object from a Moodle course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to download an H5P object from a Moodle course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Please keep in mind that you will not be able to open an H5P file on your machine as it is web-based content that requires a specific authoring tool. This process can be useful if you would like to store the file somewhere safe on your machine for a long period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using your Content bank<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To download an H5P object to your machine from your Content bank, please follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Please navigate to your Content bank and then select an H5P object from your list by opening its content on a new page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Please click on the ‘More’ button and then select ‘Download’ from the pop-up drop-down list. Your file should be downloaded in a few seconds, depending on the file and content size.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Without using your Content bank<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If you are unsure about the location of the H5P object, however, it is added as an activity to your Moodle course, you can then download the file directly through the activity’s settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To download an H5P object to your machine from an H5P activity, please follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Once you opened the activity, please click on the ‘Settings’ button.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. You will be directed to the settings of the H5P object. Under the \u2018General\u2019 section, next to the \u2018Package\u2019 file, your uploaded file would be displayed. Please click on its icon.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
