CREATE YOUR OWN LESSON MATERIALS: H5P

CREATE YOUR OWN LESSON MATERIALS: H5P

    Greetings to all bloggers, students, teachers, and enthusiasts! 🌟 Today's topic is our lesson project that I enthusiastically participated in, "Creating Materials on H5P." Let's take a look together at what this H5P is all about! 🚀

    H5P (HTML5 Package) stands out as an open-source tool and content creation platform designed for the development of interactive and multimedia content. This versatile platform goes beyond traditional methods, allowing users to craft a wide range of educational materials, including web-based modules, interactive games, quizzes, presentations, and various other engaging content. Its support for interactive elements, such as audio, video, images, drag-and-drop activities, and more, facilitates the creation of dynamic and immersive learning experiences.

    Offering a rich array of activities such as crosswords, read & answer exercises, speaking activities, flashcards, matching games, fill in the blanks, and more, H5P brings diverse content to every lesson. This not only keeps the learning experience fresh but also caters to different learning styles and preferences. By providing a variety of interactive options, H5P ensures that students remain engaged, allowing for a more personalized and effective learning journey that actively prevents boredom during classes.

    In our classroom setting, we opted for a different approach by utilizing Apitwist instead of directly accessing H5P from its official website. On Apitwist, we navigated through the same content, selecting "h5p" as the content type. From there, we could fine-tune our experience by choosing the specific activity we wanted to create. This customization allowed us to curate content by adding various elements such as text, photos, audio, and more, tailoring the material to meet the unique needs of our class.

You can reach my materials created from H5P on this link. (I designed the first 30 materials in Unit 3, and the remaining materials in the unit were designed by my group mates.)

LET'S KEEP OUR VOCABULARY WEEKLY: WORD OF THE WEEKS!

LET'S KEEP OUR VOCABULARY WEEKLY: WORD OF THE WEEKS!

    Greetings, language enthusiasts! Let's dive into the world of vocabulary learning, a task that might seem daunting to some but is far from being insurmountable. I recently stumbled upon an incredibly effective method during my Erasmus+ journey at the European University of Flensburg in Germany, and I can't wait to share it with you.

    The approach is delightfully simple yet profoundly impactful – a weekly vocabulary table. Embrace the classic technique and watch your lexicon flourish!

    Here's the drill: Each week, jot down unfamiliar words along with their meanings, add context, share your comments, and craft an example sentence. The cherry on top? Include the word type for a comprehensive understanding. By infusing your own examples, you not only personalize the learning experience but also forge authentic connections with the words.

    Allow me to present a snapshot of my own vocabulary table, meticulously cultivated over     14 weeks during my C1.2 English course at EUF: 

    (If you want to reach the template, you can contact with me via e-mail on my profile!)
