Authoring tools for e-learning: critical analysis and pedagogical perspectives. The case of H5P in interactive digital teaching.

This paper critically analyses authoring tools for e-learning, with a fo cus on the H5P platform, highlighting its transformative potential in digital teach ing. H5P is an open-source technology capable of promoting interactive, inclu sive and cognitively stimulating learning environments. The article emphasises that such tools should not be seen merely as technical solutions, but as pedagog ical levers for a profound methodological restructuring of teaching. Through the integration of dynamic multimedia content and immediate feedback, H5P pro motes motivation, self-regulation and meaningful learning. However, the effec tiveness of digital innovation depends on the quality of instructional design and teacher training. Only conscious and thoughtful use of these environments can lead to real educational transformation, capable of going beyond the simple dig ital transposition of traditional teaching.
