Integrating Microsoft products with your Learning Management System (LMS)

  • Article

Microsoft Education and our third-party partners understand that the flow of teaching and learning invariably crosses solution boundaries. We're working on providing more seamless experiences, keeping 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.

These tools include:

  • Brings Microsoft 365 directly into your workflows

The Microsoft OneDrive LTI app integrates with your LMS to bring Microsoft OneDrive and Microsoft 365 directly into your most important workflows that include:

  • Attaching resources and organizing content.

  • Starting collaborative documents.

  • Creating and grading assignments.

  • Secure and fully compliant with latest LTI standards

The Microsoft OneDrive LTI App is compatible with LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage, allowing for a secure and integrated user experience.

  • Modern and rich user experience

We're improving upon the existing Microsoft 365 integration in your LMS by delivering a modern user experience, complete with an expanded Microsoft OneDrive file picker and rich editing experiences for Office files.

Microsoft owns the OneDrive LTI app, which means you’ll always get the latest updates from Microsoft automatically.

The Microsoft OneDrive LTI App allows you to:

  • Attach Microsoft 365 files including Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and Excel from the Rich Content Editor.
  • Distribute Microsoft 365 cloud assignments.
  • View and organize your personal and course Microsoft OneDrive files.
  • Create collaborations where course members can work together on shared documents in real time.
  • Access multiple Microsoft OneDrive accounts, including personal and school accounts.
  • Integrate Microsoft 365 files with your course modules.
  • Use your Microsoft account for single sign-on with your LMS.
