H5P Word Order

An H5P content type where students arrange words into the correct order by drag and drop.

Features

• Simple text input for authors: enter words separated by spaces, use *asterisks* to group multi-word blocks (e.g. elas metsas *kes oli must* ja inetu)
• Drag-and-drop reordering with touch/mobile support
• Fisher-Yates shuffle that guarantees a different starting order
• Check Answer, Retry, and Show Solution buttons (configurable)
• Per-word feedback showing correct/incorrect positions
• xAPI scoring with getScore() and getMaxScore()
• State persistence via getCurrentState() — students can resume where they left off
• Translatable UI strings via l10n group in semantics

Installation

1. Download the .h5p file from Releases
2. Upload it to your H5P-enabled platform (Moodle, WordPress, Drupal, etc.)
3. Create a new activity and select "Word Order"

Usage

For authors

Enter words in the correct order, separated by spaces:

The cat sat on the mat

To make multiple words into one draggable block, wrap them with asterisks:

elas metsas *kes oli must* ja inetu

This creates 5 draggable parts: elas, metsas, kes oli must, ja, inetu.

For students

1. Words appear in random order
2. Drag words to rearrange them
3. Click "Check Answer" to see which are correct
4. Use "Retry" to try again or "Show Solution" to see the answer

Dependencies
