H5P is a free and open-source platform for everyone to create, share and reuse interactive HTML5 content. Since it has been released in 2013, it has made the life of educators easier with its tools. The educators can use the H5P platform to create different types of interactive content easily. In this post, we will see which H5P content types are accessibility friendly and can be used for creating more accessible courses.
Few months back, H5P community team has released the list of the accessible content types and recommended by the H5P project.
