H5P stands for HTML 5 Package. Now we know that may not explain it at all. A more simplified way to describe it is content that can be reused on multiple websites. Functionally it is bits of HTML code that can do wondrous, and interactive things. The best part about H5P is that it can be “reused” over and over. Once someone creates a piece of H5P content you can “embed” it in places like Canvas and WordPress. And because HTML5 is a standard, the same code can be used in lots of places.
