29.5 Incorporating Elements in Your Course
Integrating Activities into Your Course
Depending on which area of your course you decide to gamify, choosing the right activity can be challenging. Spend some time exploring the library of elements that have already been created by educators before creating your own.
Don't forget which path you chose as an instructor! Are you gamifying the structure of your course? Are you adding game elements to encourage participation on a specific topic? Whichever H5P activity you choose depends on the needs of your students and your curriculum. By gamifying key areas of your course material, you can increase engagement from students, keeping their attention longer and providing immediate feedback on areas they may be struggling with.
