Inspera would like to gather feedback from the participating institutions on the current possibilities and limitations. Specifically, what features and functionality should be added before the institution would start using this? To share feedback with Inspera, please follow these steps: Please note that Inspera will not provide support on how to set up or use the integration |
IMS Learning Tools Interoperability™ (LTI) is a specification designed to allow remote tools and content to be integrated into a Learning Management System (LMS).
See http://www.imsglobal.org/specs/ltiv1p1p1/implementation-guide for more technical details on LTI.
Inspera Assessment currently supports launching as a tool using LTI 1.1.1, for both admin and student users. Transfer of results is not currently supported.
Important note!
The current functionality does not contain any adaptions of Inspera Assessment to optimise user experience or instruct users on how to use LTI.
The current LTI integration available during the beta is not suited for usage outside of technical and functional evaluation.
Overall flow
For Inspera Assessment to be added as an LTI app in an LMS/VLE, a set of credentials is needed. Contact Inspera Service Desk to get this set up for your account.

Access to the test is controlled by the LMS. By exposing access to the created object, the LTI integration assumes that all users with access to the object should have access in Inspera Assessment (this also covers how student are assigned to a test).
Practical setup of IA as an LTI tool
These steps are for Canvas, but quite similar for Moodle. In the longer term, we will likely add Inspera Assessment as a centralised tool in Canvas (in their app directory or similar), skipping some of the steps here.

For Launch URL, remember to use https:// your institutions url /ltiaccess
Use of the IA LTI tool
There are two ways of using LTI tools in Canvas, as a normal item/activity and as an assignment. Inspera Assessment support both. We'll show both examples in order here.
Creating a normal item/activity
In the course builder in Canvas, create a module and then an activity of type External Tool. Select the relevant LTI tool type (as defined in the previous section) by clicking it. This will fill out the relevant URL as shown in the example below:
...
Then a student can access this via Canvas and do the test from there, without logging on:
