As part of the New Mexico OER Consortium Grant Project, we created a timeline for US History II (HIST 1120) using H5P, an open-source tool that allows users to create and share interactive content. The timeline can easily be embedded in an LMS allowing students to get a visual sense of the trajectory of US history. In this session, we will demonstrate how to use H5P to create a variety of timelines and other activities that can be embedded into an LMS to improve student engagement.
