What is the Qualtrics LTI?
The Qualtrics LTI (a.k.a. "DRiEAM", pronounced dream) is a tool that integrates Qualtrics surveys into Canvas. This allows students to complete Qualtrics surveys without having to leave their Canvas environment to go to a separate link or tab, and allows instructors to assign and grade student completion of Qualtrics surveys from all from within their Canvas site.
How does Qualtrics LTI work?
The Qualtrics LTI links surveys from Qualtrics to Canvas, below are the basic steps:
- In your Qualtrics account, you develop and publish a survey.
- Next, head to the Qualtrics LTI (in Canvas) and add this survey to your Canvas environment.
- Lastly, go to a course in Canvas and distribute the survey as an assignment.
- Once students complete the survey, the results will be recorded in Canvas and Qualtrics.
