#38 H5P – Guess the Answer Activity Tutorial

·

🧠 Guess the Answer (H5P on WordPress)

The Guess the Answer activity is a straightforward, interactive tool built with H5P that lets users engage with a single image or video by trying to guess what’s being shown. The setup is minimal: you display a piece of media, ask a question (like “What is this animal called?”), and let the learner think before clicking a button to reveal the correct answer.

There’s no scoring, no tracking—just a quick moment of interaction designed to prompt recall or spark curiosity. A hover text can be added over the image for an extra clue, but overall, the format stays clean and simple.

What makes it useful?

  • 🧒 For young learners, it works great for vocabulary checks—animals, fruits, landmarks, or simple objects.
  • 🌍 Language teachers can use it to introduce new words with visual cues before a lesson.
  • 🎥 Media-based learning can include a short video clip followed by a “What just happened?” question.
  • 🧠 Memory games or review exercises—students guess from memory, then self-check.
  • 🧘 Low-pressure engagement for self-study or warm-up activities before quizzes or discussions.

It’s not meant for assessment or tracking progress, but it fits perfectly when you want to encourage curiosity or reinforce visual learning in a lightweight, zero-stress way.
