The BU Learning Blocks (BULB) plugin is available for hosted WordPress sites

BU Learning Blocks (BULB) is a collection of Gutenberg blocks and WordPress Custom Post Types that enable the easy creation of academic lessons. With BULB you can facilitate online learning by embedding self-assessment questions directly into your lesson. Creating and publishing a BULB Lesson is no different than creating a standard WordPress Page. The plugin provides two key capabilities that are not provided by WordPress:

  • A set of blocks that help you add different types of self-assessment questions
  • A way to order and navigate multiple Lesson Pages in a specific sequence

On Twitter, one of the devs responded to a question comparing BULB to H5P:

BULB is more fully integrated with WordPress, as a native plugin, and embraces the Gutenberg editor more fully. It also lets you make your content private, which H5P doesn’t. H5P’s advantage is a wider variety of content types.
