Abstract
This presentation looks to explore two examples of branching scenarios developed using a design team in collaboration between an academic, an educational designer, and a digital designer.
The H5P branching scenario tool offers up opportunity for developing engaging active learning activities which align with the tenets of good practice – scenarios can be media-rich, interactive, and responsive. This allows students to dig deeper into a concept, exploring at their own pace, with immediate feedback, and to explore multiple perspectives or pathways.
Research has found that branching scenarios help students to learn and practise complicated decision-making processes, which can develop their critical thinking skills (Bouwer & Guerrero, 2020; Cairns & Wright, 2018; Pasklinsky, Graham-Perel, Villacarlos-Philip, Slaka-Vella, & Tilley, 2021; Santos, Cordon, & Palomo-Duarte, 2019).
This presentation seeks to demonstrate that by taking only a few simple ideas and expanding them into a richer learning experience using the H5P branching scenario tool does not have to be a complicated or time-intensive process. Working collaboratively with the Centre of Teaching and Learning can enrich and ease the process.
