Interactive content is the requirement for a modern day learning environment. All Learning Management System have leveraged the Interactive content integration to improve the learning experience. There are many tools to create Interactive content but most of them are either paid or else need LMS integration.
Lumi Education is the solution to this problem as it is completely open source and free. As of now it allows you to create H5P based interactive content without using any LMS or CMS like Moodle or WordPress. Later on integration with other tools is also planned.
Lumi is an Open Source desktop app that allows you to create, edit, view and share interactive content with dozens of different content types. The goal behind the development of Lumi is to make learning accessible, individual and exciting.
Lumi is based on H5P to create Interactive content with over 40 content types. You can also save your content as all-in-one HTML files that work nearly everywhere and send it to your learners. Learners can download their progress with Lumi’s reporter tool and send it to you for analysis. You can also export your content as SCORM 1.2 packages which can be used in any compliant LMS.
