LTI allows courseware and learning tools from different vendors to be launched within a learning platform, often an LMS. The LTI configuration allows the student to move seamlessly from one tool to the other, with minimal effort from instructors or students.
GSEonline can be configured as an external application or external tool.
GSEonline External Application or Tool
GSEonline can be configured as an external application or tool allowing instructors and students to access from within the platform. When the application is launched, the users will be taken directly to the GSEonline Bookshelf.
LTI Configuration
For LTI configuration, we will share the LTI URL, consumer key, and secret key that is required to be configured in your LMS. From your LMS, you can either choose to launch a GSE branded bookshelf that will show all the eBooks/courses licensed for the user or you can choose to directly launch the eBook/course. A custom book ID parameter is required to be passed in the LTI request from the LMS. This parameter will be shared to you based on the courses that are licensed.

Once GSEonline has been setup as an external application, teachers and students can access the bookshelf or reader by clicking the link from within a learning platform. When the application is launched, the users will be taken directly to the GSEonline Bookshelf.
