This week we covered making interactive videos with H5P. I think this could be a fairly useful tool for some classes, particularly if you’re assigning students specific videos to watch and it also allows for them to stay engaged rather than watch just passively.
In the particular case of an assignment, I think this would be most useful in the science setting, but I suppose I could also use it in the context of music theory. There are tons of videos out there detailing basic music theory, i.e. how to read notes/clefs/rhythms, but I think it could be particularly interesting once you get into more advanced theory as well. At that point you could link excerpts of orchestras playing symphonies and ask questions like “What did the orchestra just play? A: a period, or B: a sentence”, or questions like “Which of the seven common western modes was just used in that piece?” and things like that.
