Labster

Overview

Labster allows for an instructor to launch the Labster lab selector to choose which lab simulation to insert into the D2L Brightspace course. Upon selection, Labster will create an External Learning Tool (LTI) link within the D2L Brightspace course to that simulation.  The LTI links will facilitate Single-Sign On (SSO) and Grade Synching.
