Once you have decided which Learning Science resource you wish to add to your course, you can create an external tool activity that links to that resource.
Caution
...
- Navigate to your Moodle course and Turn Editing On.
- Click Add an activity or resource in the desired section of your course.
- Select External Tool in the activity chooser.
- Configure the external tool activity with the following settings:
- Set the desired Activity Name
- Set the Tool URL to the one for the resource you wish to use
- Optional: Tick Accept grades from tool under Privacy if you want grade data to pass back into the Moodle gradebook
- Press Save and return to course and then open the newly created activity from within your course.
Once the external tool activity has been added to your course, your students and any enrolled course administrators or tutors will be able to access it. The Tool URL in the image above is for the Bunsen Burner (Simulation).
Caution
Due to the nature in which this LTI integration has to be used within Moodle, it's important to keep the external tool activity that takes you to the list of available resources hidden from students. This ensures that your students will only access the desired resources when required to do so as part of their course.
