Add Links in LTI Advantage LMS to MindTap Activities and Resources

If your LTI Advantage LMS is not otherwise specified, the following steps apply to any LTI Advantage compliant LMS. After setting up your MindTap course, create links from LTI Advantage LMS to activities or other content in MindTap. Linked graded activities are included in the LTI Advantage LMS gradebook.

Note Category scores can not be synced to LTI Advantage LMS.

Before adding links to MindTap activities, make sure your MindTap course is set up the way you want it.

  • Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your MindTap course.
  • Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, point values, and grade categories.
Best Practice Use consistent assignment settings and a consistent schedule for due dates and times.

Links created in this way are sometimes called deep links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged between LTI Advantage LMS and MindTap.

  1. Open your LTI Advantage LMS course.
  2. Follow the steps for your LMS to access the Cengage tool.
  3. Click the Cengage tool.
    If the tool is not available, contact your administrator.
  4. Click Continue.
  5. Optional: Repeat these steps to add another link.

If needed, you can reorganize the links in LTI Advantage LMS.
