Feature requests

I remember speaking to someone from H5p (a sales rep maybe?) last year who mentioned that a save button was going to be added to the Interactive Book.

At my college, there are professors who use the Interactive Book as a "take home" assessment. The assessments are longer in duration - requiring students to complete over several days. Right now, she has to create multiple Interactive Books.

I don't see this feature request on the Request List, unfortunately.

Hopefully, it is still in development.

Could someone confirm?

Thanks.

Hi Louisa,

There are no save button being developed for Interactive Book. Instead there is a resume feature that is under review/testing that lets students start where they left off once it is released. I don't have a timeline though when it will be released.

For your reference this is the list of contents in H5P.com that support the resume feature.

Thanks for the quick response.

Yah - unfortunately, the resume option is not available for the Interactive Book feature.

For a tool with a lot of promise, not having a save button is very unfortunate. Reduces its usablity a lot - since by design it's intended for longer kinds of learning activity - like a course content module you get from Articulate.

Hi Louisa,

I missed to mention that support for the resume feature in Interactive Book is soon to arrived. The developers in the core team just needs to make sure that it works properly and adding the feature does not break existing features/contents.
