“Learning Tools Interoperability® (LTI®) is one of the key interoperability standards needed to integrate multiple campus systems to create a coherent technology ecosystem (shared environments) made up of tools and systems from several different vendors.

“When adopting a new digital tool for a class, we need to first consider the pedagogical, ethical/legal, and functional implications. Educational technologies are built around design assumptions about which and how pedagogies work best or support students most. For example, an anti-plagiarism tool assumes certain things about writing and the teaching of writing and also how citation should or ought to be taught or how ethics might be understood in student writing. An instructor would need to decide if an anti-plagiarism tool matches their approach to writing instruction.
LTI standard at Colorado State University includes security, privacy, legal, data sharing, ownership, and management, pedagogical impacts, technical consideration, development and support, economics, and accessibility. New tools are requested to be evaluated using the LTI standard for integration with Canvas. If approved, a tool can be installed at the college or institution level. It can usually be added as an external tool in a course Module or Assignment.” (
