EDU Learning Apps

Posted by Kenneth Ronkowitz on

edu-apps.org is an open collection of learning apps that can be used in your classes.


The apps are built on LTI which is "like Facebook apps or Google widgets, but interoperable between lots of edu tools. Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI)® is a specification developed by IMS Global Learning Consortium. The principal concept of LTI is to establish a standard way of integrating rich learning applications (often remotely hosted and provided through third-party services) with platforms like learning management systems, portals, or other educational environments. In LTI these learning applications are called Tools (delivered by Tool Providers) and the LMS, or platforms, are called Tool Consumers." 


The edu-apps site is run by Instructure and its contents are available on GitHub under the MIT license. The official IMS LTI site is available here. The tools listed should work in most systems.
