For anyone who makes use of all the activities / content you can easily create with H5P, you may want to give some thanks to Oliver Tacke @otacke who without fanfare has been a force of technical power in creating, updating, and also sharing H5P tools and tips.

In a new spirit I am hoping to kindle of microrecognition and some remixer sharing, I am sending Oliver a Hat Tip of thanks

I have gotten to know Oliver well over the last few years trough both projects and also following his H5P actions via his blog at Otacke’s Lab. He is an independent developer, who often is contracted to create new content types for various organizations-- which he nearly always arranges it so they can also be shared openly. A few of them eventually find their way into the H5P Big List of Tools.

This hat/tip was instigated by a reply Oliver made to a fun Music Grid web tool I shared (worth playing). He noted this was on a huge list of his H5P content ideas, both new ones, and ones he took from idea to creating as his public H5P To Do list

“I thought it might be a good idea to better keep track of my ideas and todos related to H5P – why not make that publicly?”

Hat/Tip It Forward

The image above was generated with the Fabulous Remixer Machine created by @VisualThinkery via a new remixer template made available just this year.

I’m hoping that others who come across large and small acts of sharing and support in Open Education, to consider taking maybe 10 minutes to remix this hat/tip - you can choose from a set of hat styles, change the colors in the image, and write your own message.

Create a new remix as a message of thanks to someone. You do not have to publicly share, just send it via email or a private message.

If you get one of these, stop and relish that warm feeling-- and. then please then consider making one yourself and sending it to someone else. Can you imagine the subtle impact of a wave of open appreciation messages?

Hat/tip and send appreciation quietly or loudly, but just stop and say thanks with a remix. Need that link again? Start here and give someone else a warm feeling or small recognition/appreciation.

Thanks for signalling, Nathalie-- I might be tempted to send you a hat tip for sending a thumbs up :wink: Just kidding. I will take this as a signal that you are planning to send one to someone in your network!
