LTI is an open standard created and maintained by the IMS Global Learning Consortium. LTI allows Administrators to add a special Web link inside a learning management system (LMS) such as Canvas, Blackboard, or Moodle that launches an external tool. This connection provides contextual information for the external tool including information about the User who selected the link, the course in which the link is posted, the specific exercise the link refers to, the User’s role in the course, and other useful data. LTI links make it easier for Instructors and Learners to use tools outside the learning management system environment and make them feel more “integrated” into the system.
This document outlines how to set up the LTI integration between Pedagoo and your Canvas.
IMPORTANT. To configure a Practice test from Pedagoo through LTI you need some Pedagoo data. Please, review the LTI integration – How to get the Pedagoo data post.
