LTI assessments

LTI assessments

Overview

Tools are external resources that are intended to be used like any other resource within our site. These tools can be courses, videos, audio, maps, assessments, badges, and more. In our site, learning tools can be added in several places: in the business, personal or network library, in the resources area of a course or group, and in a module. For more details on tools and tool providers, visit the Tools topic. 

We offer the option of integrating 3rd party LTI assessments into our platform. To add an assessment, LTI must be enabled by an administrator from the Admin/App center, then add a tool provider. 

Using LTI assessments

To use an LTI assessment in a course, go to the course Assessments area and click Add. You will see the available LTI assessments listed with the other types of assessments.

Select the assessment from the list, enter its details, then click Save. 

In the options tab, you can choose to embed or launch the LTI assessment in a separate window. By default, the assessment will be embedded and it will launch in a separate window only on mobile devices.

Here's the overview page of the assessment.

Submissions

When a learner takes the assessment, they must click on Play.

The LTI assessment will start and learners can take it by following the instructions.

When the learner finishes the assessment, the score is returned to our system and they can see it on the overview page. 

If a learner wants to submit another answer and they have not exceeded the maximum number of submissions, they can click on Play.

Learners can see their submission in the Submissions tab. To see the results of the latest submission click Results.
