Accessing Third Party Publisher Tools in Canvas

Canvas supports LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability). This standard allows integrating third-party or vendor tools with your Canvas course or enhancing the course with other Web applications and Internet resources.

If you are using a publisher website for materials and assessments in your course, you may be able to connect your Canvas course to the publisher course site and/or integrate publisher-provided tools so that students can connect to the publisher resources from Canvas.
