About Me


What is IMS LTI?

• A simple REST launch protocol that allows an externally hosted tool to be integrated into an LMS and receive course, user, and roster information as well as send grades back to the LMS.

• It gives users a seamless integration between learning tools from multiple sources


Case Study: Amanda Severance

• Senior in Special Education

• Technology in the Classroom Course

WikiSpaces.com and LTI

Spaces"– One "space" per school or district

• Each Space can have many "Wikis"– One per class (approximately)

• Data and accounts are isolated




LTI Experiences @ WikiSpaces


Why IMS LTI @ FIE?

• Engineering Educators hack educational systems

• Often we build our own systems rather than use the university-provided system

• You can innovate outside the enterprise LMS while still plugging-in

• It is probably already on your campus
