Creating a Collage
A collage is useful when you want to neatly organise a collection of images into one composition. This can be used as a way to present a preview or summary of a topic or process from a lesson.
Accessing H5P in Canvas
You can access H5P in Canvas through the Rich Content Editor (RCE), which is accessible via the edit view of Page, Assignment, Discussion Board, Announcement and Quiz questions.
For this example, we will be adding H5P onto a Canvas page. The first thing you will need to do is either open the page you want to embed the H5P content into or create a new page. Then click the ‘Edit’ button which will open the RCE. (You will automatically go into edit mode if you create a new page.)
Next, you will need to locate H5P in the RCE toolbar as below.
Clicking on that menu item will open a pop-up showing your H5P library. From here, you will have the option to either insert previously created content or create something new.
Select Add Content and a menu of H5P content types will pop up.
In the search bar type Collage and the collage option will then pop up. Select Details and then Use
You will see the following format.
Add a relevant title in the Title section
Then select the appropriate Layout

Upload images from your computer into each section of the collage.

Note: the image you upload to each section will be cropped according to the size of the area. You can change this by dragging the image or zooming in/out.
Optional: change the spacing/height sliders.
Click Save and Insert to add to your page.
