Learning Object Repository (LOR)

The terms LOR and CMS are sometimes interchangeably used in reference to the digital libraries.


Learning Record Store

A general term that describes where learning activities are collected. 



Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI)

Learning Tools Interoperability® (LTI) is an interoperability standard developed by 1EdTech. LTI establishes a standard way of integrating rich learning applications with platforms like learning management systems, portals, or other educational environments. LTI enables districts to securely connect their learning platforms and tools while reducing the time and significant costs associated with developing separate product integrations. 

With LTI, institutions can maximize the effectiveness and capabilities of the teaching and learning ecosystem while saving time and money through a scalable and seamless approach to securely integrate multiple sources of digital content, learning tools, and assessment products into the digital learning environment. 

LTI Services: 

Names and Roles Provisioning (NRPS)

Assignment and Grades (AGS)

Deep Linking (DL)

For more information, see 1EdTech's Learning Apps and Tools Initiative and Learning Tools Interoperability Project Group Activity. Higher Education Institutional Members may be interested in the Learning Tools Interoperability Leadership Innovation Leadership Network; for more information see Higher Ed Innovation Leadership Networks

Learning Tools Interoperability® Resource Search

The 1EdTech LTI Resource Search standard defines how learning tools and learning platforms search learning object repositories (LORs), and other catalogs of learning resources, for learning objects. The goal of the Resource Search standard is a common way for students and teachers to be able to search resource providers, such as learning object repositories, from single sources or aggregated from multiple sources, within a learning object consumer such as a learning management system or another educational platform. For more information, see the LTI Resource Search Project Group Activity.

LMS

Learning Management System. A platform that provides access to the digital content of courses. It may include the sequence of lessons, content, activities, chat tool, and other tools. Some LMS have digital libraries, other may include a Lesson Planner.


LTI Advantage

LTI Advantage, introduced in October 2017, is a package of key LTI extensions that enable institutions to move beyond first-generation learning architecture through deeper integration that ensures better teaching and learning experiences. LTI Advantage is a package of extensions that build on the core LTI standard (v1.3) to add new features that enable deeper integration of any tool with any LMS. LTI Advantage makes it easier for faculty to innovate and meet the unique learning needs of students, save time spent provisioning courses, and dramatically reduce integration times. Currently, the LTI Advantage extensions are Names and Role Provisioning ServicesDeep Linking, and Assignment and Grade Services. For more information, see the LTI Advantage Overview.



LTI Advantage Complete

LTI Advantage certification is awarded when a system certifies for LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage services in the following ways:

  • A platform must support LTI 1.3 Core and all 3  LTI Advantage services.  
  • A tool must support LTI 1.3 Core and at least two LTI Advantage Services.
  • Platforms and Tools that certify LTI 1.3 Core and all LTI Advantage Services get an LTI Advantage Complete Certification.
