THE IMPACT OF INTERACTIVE H5P CONTENT AND TRADITIONAL ELEARNING MATERIALS ON EDUCATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
Abstract
This article provides a theoretical analysis of the didactic effectiveness of interactive content developed using H5P technology, compared to traditional digital learning materials such as PDFs, PowerPoint presentations, videos, and quizzes. The study explores how H5P aligns with educational approaches such as constructivism, active learning, and multimodal pedagogy. Drawing upon international scholarly sources, the article discusses the role of H5P in enhancing student motivation, engagement, and knowledge retention within blended and distance learning environments. Additionally, the paper outlines the strengths of H5P—its interactivity, user-friendly design, and multimedia flexibility— alongside challenges such as technical infrastructure dependency, the need for teacher training, and variability in student participation. The article concludes with practical recommendations for integrating H5P effectively into contemporary educational practices.
