It is like my Christmas present came early this year! <\/p>\n
After a successful IMS quarterly meeting in Commerce, Texas in the second week of November where we demonstrated prototype interoperable implementations of LTI v1.1 with Moodle 2.2, Sakai 2.9 and SPV Software’s<\/a> Building Block and PowerLink, the spec passed the threshold test for going to Public Draft.<\/p>\n The primary new feature for LTI v1.1 is the ability to send grades back from an external tool to an LMS.<\/p>\n In the IMS process, when a specification reaches Public Draft it is very mature and nearly complete and folks should review it quickly<\/strong> to see if there are any issues because it is very likely to be final in the next 30-60 days.<\/p>\n Documentation: You may download the public draft at: http:\/\/www.imsglobal.org\/lti\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n Public Discussion Forum: http:\/\/www.imsglobal.org\/community\/forum\/categories.cfm?catid=44<\/a><\/p>\n Open Source Implementation Code: http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/ims-dev\/<\/a><\/p>\n IMS Members\u2013Only Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n Testing: Only Members may review and begin to practice for the LTI v1.1 Conformance Certification at: http:\/\/www.imsglobal.org\/developers\/alliance\/LTI\/cert-v1p1\/<\/a> <\/p>\n
