Adding CourseArc LTI Links

For clarity and organizational purposes, CourseArc LTI links that are linked in Brightspace should be named Lesson X.X: Title of the Lesson. This should be the name in both External Learning Tools in Brightspace and in the unit folders.

PLS Gradebook Setup

Ensure the gradebook items are in the same order as they appear within the course content and that their names make it easy for a learner to find the item in the course. Complete the Setup Wizard so that grades are successfully reported to the PLP and adjust the final Calculated Grade so that course completion triggers in accordance with the course completion criteria.

Settings for CourseArc

For courses that are built in CourseArc, always use the CourseArc version of a content type if available unless the H5P version offers relevant features that are not available in CourseArc. H5P Content should be embedded in an HTML content block in CourseArc. The H5P content needs to be published as Public before embedding. The toolbar should be removed from the content for PLS courses only.
