Getting started with LTI tools
Step-by-step guide: How to create and share a SCORM package via LTI tools
This guide helps you create a course, add a SCORM package and share it via LTI tools in Linqur. Follow the steps below to get your content ready.
1. Click on Courses in the menu
2. Click on Add course
3. Enter a course title and choose a category
The Unique ID is optional. If you leave it empty, Linqur fills it in for you. You can also add the cover image, description and estimated duration right away. What each field does is explained in how to add a new course.
4. Choose Standard Course and click Save
For a course you share via LTI tools, choose Standard Course. Do you have the same package in several languages? Then the third card, Multilingual SCORM, puts them in one course; see create a multilingual SCORM course.
5. You land on the Content tab of the course
This is where you add the SCORM package.
6. Click on SCORM to start adding a SCORM package to the course
7. Name your SCORM package
8. Drag and drop a SCORM (.zip) file to the dropzone
You can also click the arrow in the box and upload the file through the file picker. Every step is in add a SCORM package.
9. Click on Save
10. Create the LTI tool
The package is now in the course. To share it with a client’s LMS, open the LTI tools tab and click Add LTI tool. Give the tool a name, choose the LTI version and the package, and click Create LTI tool. Every step is covered in publishing a SCORM package as an LTI tool.
Linqur then shows the Launch URL and Secret your client needs; see share the launch details of an LTI tool. For an LTI 1.3 tool you first register your client’s LMS as a platform. The rest of the work happens in your LMS: adding it as an LTI consumer in Moodle via LTI Advantage covers that side of the connection. Values such as the enrolment period, the secret and grade synchronisation are explained one by one in LTI tool settings explained. If the launch fails when you open it from the LMS, the list of LTI errors and their solutions matches the message on screen to a cause. If your client’s LMS doesn’t support LTI, use a SCORM wrapper instead: see getting started with SCORM wrappers.
