Improved LTI Canvas Support #3545

Open joncameron opened 5 years ago

Description

Avalon's LTI implementation isn't standard and awkward for users. Canvas has LTI extensions that would allow Avalon content to be more integrated into the course site interface. This needs to be investigated. How are other third party services integrating into Canvas, and how can we match that? What are the LMS use cases that Avalon should be successfully handling?

@joncameron NU is now getting course lists directly from canvas and handling auth that way. I'm not sure if it would work in every case or if it's very NU specific. Let's refine this one.
