Part of the university course "Open Educational Resources in Higher Education" was the successful participation at the MOOC “OER in Higher education” produced as multilingual MOOC by the project team and hosted at the MOOC platform iMooX.at. To verify successful completion of the MOOC, students should have been asked asked to submit their PDF certificates manually that were awarded upon successfully passing all quizzes in the MOOC. The instructor then entered the grade or result into the course LMS. A new way of submitting certificates that prove that students have completed the MOOC was to be devised, as the goal was to move away from the previous approach of manually submitting certificates. The report describes how LTI works and was used for this.

The series “Unite! Digital Teaching and Learning Success Story Report” was initiated by Cm.2 Digital Campus, led by TU Graz (Martin Ebner) as part of the idea to collect, spread and enhance the possibilities, usages and lessons learned of teaching and learning offers using the federated learning management system Metacampus in 11/2024 till the end of the current Erasmus+ funding period 10/2026.
