We describe the use of HTML5P (H5P) content collaboration framework to deliver an interactive, online alternative to an assessed laboratory practical on the Biomedical Cell Biology unit at the Manchester Metropolitan University, U.K. H5P is free, open-source technology to deliver bespoke interactive, self-paced online sessions. To determine if the use of H5P affected learning and student attainment, we compared the student grades among three cohorts: the 18/19 cohort who had 'wet' laboratory classes, the 19/20 cohort who had 'wet' laboratory classes with additional video support and the 20/21 cohort who had the H5P alternative. Our analysis shows that students using the H5P were not at a disadvantage to students who had 'wet' laboratory classes with regard to assessment outcomes. Student feedback, mean grade attained and an upward trend in the number of students achieving first-class marks (≥70%), indicate H5P may enhance students' learning experience and be a valuable learning source augmenting traditional practical classes in the future.
我们描述了如何使用HTML5P（H5P）内容协作框架，为英国曼彻斯特城市大学的生物医学细胞生物学单元的评估实验室实践提供一种交互式的在线替代方案。H5P是一种免费的开源技术，用于提供定制的交互式、自主学习的在线课程。为了确定使用H5P是否会影响学习和学生成绩，我们比较了三个队列的学生成绩：18/19队列进行“湿”实验室课程，19/20队列进行“湿”实验室课程并辅以额外的视频支持，20/21队列使用H5P替代方案。我们的分析表明，在评估结果方面，使用H5P的学生并不比进行“湿”实验室课程的学生处于劣势。学生反馈、平均成绩以及获得一等成绩（≥70%）的学生人数呈上升趋势，表明H5P可能会增强学生的学习体验，并在未来成为增强传统实践课程的宝贵学习资源。
