Overview
FlatWorld Homework allows for an instructor to add a FlatWorld Homework assignment into a D2L Brightspace course by inserting an External Learning Tool (LTI) link to FlatWorld Homework. When a student clicks the link, they will be authenticated via Single-Sign On (SSO) and be able to complete the assignment.
The FlatWorld Homework LTI integration makes use of a school-wide configuration.
