LTI What is LTI Integration: Learning Tools Interoperability explained Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) is a data specification created by the 1EdTech Consortium (formerly IMS Global). It allows learning applications (like assessments, e-books, or simulations) to integrate with learning management systems (LMS).
LTI The challenges of using the LTI Specification for K12 and higher ed LMS integrations The LTI specification by 1EdTech is a popular method for integrating third-party tools into a learning institution’s LMS. Choosing that route has some complex issues to take into consideration before building an LTI-compliant app.
FAQ If I work with Edlink will I automatically be OneRoster/LTI/Clever certified? No. It is certainly possible for you to get certified by any of the bodies that manage the systems or standards we help edtech developers support. And Edlink would be
SIS Aeries Integration Challenges Edtech developers know learning institutions need SIS interoperability. But integration with systems like Aeries isn’t easy and provides a running list of issues that developers have to solve. Here’s a look into the types of issues to expect.

LTI What are the possible future services for LTI Advantage? LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage are the newest additions to the LTI specification. The LTI 1.3 specification is based on the LTI 1.1 specification framework and LTI Advantage is a set of optional services added to it.
LTI What does LTI Advantage mean? LTI - or Learning Tools Interoperability - is a set of rules from a group called the 1EdTech Consortium (formerally IMS Global Consortium) that provides a way for edtech products to talk to learning management systems (LMSs). Many LMSs support the LTI standard, which has been around since 2010.
Project Unicorn What are Project Unicorn and the Interoperability Rubric? Project Unicorn is an initiative of InnovateEDU. Its true goal is to “optimize and radicalize education data with interoperability”. With stakeholders across the country, Project Unicorn develops events, tools, and resources to educate k12 buyers of edtech products.

LTI What are the 9 standards from 1EdTech Consortium? 1EdTech Consortium (formallery IMS Global Learning Consortium) has published several standards throughout the edtech industry. We’ll name each standard, its purpose, and its contribution to interoperability.
Data Standards Who creates data standards for education? Several groups control the creation and maintenance of data standards in education. Data standards support interoperability, which is the ability of systems to exchange and use similar data (though standards aren’t the only way to support interoperability).
LTI The history of LTI Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) is a data specification created by 1EdTech Consortium (formerly, IMS Global Learning Consortium; 1Edtech). This specification is designed to integrate external tools and content into different LMS providers.
LTI What is LTI Advantage? LTI Advantage is the “missing piece” in development within the LTI 1.3 framework. It’s a bundle of services that sits on top of LTI 1.3 to be discussed below.
