Accordion – H5P Content Type

The accordion is a responsive tool that helps you reduce the amount of text on a page. Students can choose which headers to explore by expanding them. It is a great way to break up complex information or cut down on scrolling to read huge block of texts.

Example – Contact Page

Create a contact page that takes up very little space and highlights the information students may be looking for by using headers.

Example – Research Paper Breakdown

These instructions are usually found in the syllabus or added to Carmen as a PDF, but what if the H5P Accordion could be used to display the instructions? The accordion style can reduce screen space and allow students to jump to specific parts of the instructions without having to scroll long documents.
