Student Collaboration- moving things around on the screen to categorize

I received this message from one of our Editing Trainers:


How do we use interactive activities with students in virtual training in Moodle 3.3.9 (similar to a table-top exercise using cards or sticky notes), to allow all the students to move things around on the screen to categorize or build something using pieces?

I have spent several hours Googling and trying different H5P activities and have not been able to find a way to have students interact this way. Is there a way to do this on Totara (version 12) or is there a plug-in that will enable this?

For a post gad course on digital education, I used Padlet instead of any of the Totara or h5p activities. You can build in padlet and then embed the page into a basic Totara page for the students to interact with.

https://padlet.com/

The free account that you can get was fine for what I needed

Hope this helps

That is Brilliant! 

I had never heard of Padlet. I just tried it out and it should work well for the interactive project.

Great suggestion.

Thank you so much, Neil!

Hi Karen 

Within the Totara quiz there are drag and drop questions  that may be suitable

I've been meaning to try this Plug-In, but yet to have it installed in our staging environment: https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_stickynotes 

Might be worth a shot?
