Enable LTI Components for a Course

Enable LTI Components for a Course#

Tags: educator how-to

Studio includes a default set of core problem types that can be added to any course. You can expand the types of content you include by enabling additional exercises and tools, such as the LTI tool, which allows integration with external learning applications.

Enable the LTI Tool#

Note

This tool is enabled by default in Teak. For earlier releases, follow the steps below to enable it manually.

  1. In Studio, select Settings, and then Advanced Settings.

  2. Locate the Advanced Module List field. This field lists any advanced exercises and tools added to your course.

  3. Enter "lti_consumer", ensuring it is enclosed in double quotes. If adding multiple tools, separate them with commas.

  4. Select Save Changes.

For more information, see Enable Additional Exercises and Tools.

Note

The lti_consumer module replaces a previous version of the LTI component. The name of the module for the previous LTI component is lti and it may appear in the Advanced Module List for older courses.

The lti_consumer module includes all of the functionality of the previous LTI component and it should be used for all new courses. Courses that include the previous LTI component will continue to work correctly, even if the lti module is no longer present in the Advanced Module List.

Additionally, lti_consumer supports LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage, providing enhanced security and interoperability features for integrating external tools with Open edX.
