Microsoft Education and our third-party partners understand that the flow of teaching and learning occasionally crosses solution boundaries. We work to provide seamless experiences to keep educators and learners focused on their goals, rather than having to juggle tools. We’re integrating Microsoft products wherever teaching and learning occurs, including within and alongside Learning Management Systems (LMS).
We’ve worked with our LMS partners to create a suite of tools using the Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standard that brings the best of Microsoft directly into your LMS.
LTI links for IT Admins:
Connect Microsoft apps with leading LMSs to empower teachers and students to enhance communication, collaboration, and content creation within their familiar LMS environment while leveraging the power of Microsoft tools for streamlined workflows and improved learning outcomes. These LMSs include Canvas, Schoology, Blackboard Learn, Brightspace, and Moodle.
Our LTIs enable students and staff to access and use some of our most popular educational tools such as OneNote Class Notebook, Teams Meetings, Immersive Reader, and which allows embedding of Word, PowerPoint, and Excel for viewing from within your LMS experience
