McGraw Hill ALEKS

Overview

The McGraw Hill ALEKS LTI integration makes use of a school-wide LTI Advantage integration.  

McGraw Hill ALEKS allows for an instructor to add the External Learning Tool (LTL) as a content topic.  Upon clicking the link, the instructor or student will pair the D2L Brightspace account with the McGraw Hill ALEKS account.  After initial pairing, the link will facilitate Single-Sign On (SSO) into the ALEKS course.  Once an ALEKS assignment has passed the due date, the grade scores are sent back to the D2L Brightspace grade book via LTI Advantage grade synch.

Grade Synchronization

To send grades back to the D2L Brightspace grade book, the ALEKS grade book must be configured to Automatically synchronize ALEKS grades with your LMS gradebook.  This configuration is within the ALEKS gradebook setup.

Once an assignment has passed the due date, the score will be sent to the D2L Brightspace grade book.  The ALEKS grade book will display the last sync time.
