Learning Management System (LMS)

A learning management system is a software application that is explicitly designed to create, distribute, and manage the delivery of educational content. Think of a learning management system as a technology that can improve learning, make it faster, productive, cost-effective, and what is more critical, trackable.

Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI)

Learning Tools Interoperability is an initiative managed by the IMS Global Learning Consortium to seamlessly integrate learning applications used by instructors into their courses. It includes a standard protocol for establishing a trusted relationship between the tool provider and the Learning Management System so that students and teachers can have a seamless, integrated experience of using the tool within the context of their course.

Blackboard Learn will be our (LMS) and VMware Lab Platform our (LTI 1.3 Provider)

Please note: The information provided here is intended only to assist with some of the common ways our product can be integrated into this system. Our support site is not a comprehensive guide to the use of the Blackboard LMS, and our team can only assist with the LTI integration; we are unable to provide support for any other aspect of Blackboard's functionality.

Solution

Go to the Blackboard Developer's Webpage to register VLP as an app.

Please note: You can manage the default settings for LTI tool providers. You can override these settings on an individual basis when setting up a particular provider.

Creation of tool provider links:

This can be configured according to your institution's preference. You will need to make sure that the VLP tool provider is approved in the next step.

Allow configured tool providers to post grades

This is important if you want the VLP grades to integrate with your Blackboard gradebook automatically. In the Default Configuration section, Send User Data: Select Never, Send user data only over SSL, or Send user data over any connection.
The default setting sends data over any connection because secure information, such as username and password, is not being sent.

User Fields to Send

Select the information to be provided to the learning tool when the user opens the link. You can select any combination of Role in Course, Name, and Email Address.
Depending on the nature of the tool provider, it may have specific requirements or specific functionality that depends on some or all of this information being passed to the provider.

Allow Membership Service Access

Yes

When you register an app on the Blackboard Developer's Webpage, you can add it to your learning environment using an LTI 1.3 tool.

Complete the Placement Information section.
