Open Education Community of Practice December Community Call – Keeping Accessibility in Mind: H5P and Other OER Creation Practices
Date: December 10, 2025
Time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET
The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) is pleased to invite you to the December meeting of the Open Education Community of Practice.
This month, we’re bringing the community together to explore practices for improving accessibility when creating H5P interactive content and in OER creation more generally. Our guest speakers are Shauna Roch and Jason Benoit from Fanshawe College’s OER Design Studio who will share their H5P Description Generator including the tool’s purpose, design and how it supports accessibility. The H5P Generator is a part of a suite of apps developed to support the OER Design Studio.
Shauna Roch, Project Lead, OER Design Studio, Fanshawe College
Jason Benoit, Developer, OER Design Studio, Fanshawe College
A discussion period will follow the presentation to share and learn from each other about practices around developing H5P with accessibility in mind, along with other ways you bring accessibility into your work in Open Education.
All CARL members and non-members working in or interested in open education are welcome to join.
