Content bank - H5P Content

What is the content bank?

The content bank is an area in Radix LMS where content (currently H5P content) may be stored, edited, and created.

The content bank repository gives access to these files from the file picker.

Where is the content bank?

As a teacher, when you are in a course you'll find a link to the content bank in the Navigation drawer under Site Navigation.

Files may be viewed in list view by clicking the icon top right of the content bank.

The content bank repository is available from the file picker to locate and add H5P files into courses.

How does the content bank work?

New H5P content may be created via the Add button. It can be edited by clicking into the content then clicking Edit:

H5P activities can also be uploaded into the content bank then edited if required.

H5P activity types available in the content back are automatically downloaded via CRON or can manually be added by uploading h5p activity files (*.h5p).

Creating and editing H5P content in the Content bank

To create and edit H5P content,

  1. Go to the Content bank, accessible when in a course from the Navigation drawer under Site Navigation.
  2. Click the Add button and select a content type.

You can also download and reuse h5p content examples from h5p.org and edit them the way you want them.

Reusing H5P content

To reuse content, you just download the H5P you would like to edit and make your changes – e.g. translate to a new language or adjust it to a new situation. Once the content is downloaded as ".h5p" file, it can be uploaded to your course's content bank to make changes.

Embedding H5P into other activities
