The HANburger model - Slides - Recording
Esther van Popta, Strategic Policy Advisor Education and Research with ICT at HAN University of Applied Sciences
 
A few years ago, we developed our vision of the Digital Learning, Work and Research Environment (DLWO) for HAN University of Applied Sciences. With the aim of enabling a personal and flexible environment for our students, teachers and researchers, we have developed a concept of loosely coupled components, the HANburger model. This environment offers both generic and specific functionalities on three levels of our infrastructure: basic, choice and free. We are currently building the new environment. This concept helped us survive in times of Covid-19. What are the benefits and what are the challenges of this approach?

CDSM, a Welsh learning technology provider in Egypt - Slides - Recording
By Darren Wallace, Chief Technical Officer at CDSM
 
Our story is about our work in the Egyptian Knowledge Bank project, where we’ve been contracted to deliver our learning platform, Thinqi, to every school in Egypt (around 22 million users). We're the new kid on the block in this international space, and we’re working with some of the largest educational publishers in the world, all with their own proprietary set of APIs. We found very early on that establishing a set of open standards for the project that everyone could agree on was necessary to ensure that this complex project environment could work. LTI was essential for us to level the playing field and to ensure each provider understood what was needed to get their content to Egyptian students.

The LTI launcher, starting LTI tools from anywhere - Slides - Recording - Demo

By Ronald Ham, Software Architect at SURF, Herman van Dompseler, Software Architect at SURF, and Stef Schenkelaars, Chief Technical Officer at Drieam.

SURF has commissioned Drieam to create a prototype for an LTI launcher, a middleware solution that can connect LTI apps directly to the identity and access management tooling within an institution, independently of an LMS. Since LTI is mostly used to provision users and to provide the user in the right context access to an LTI tool, the user information has been the first focus of the project. Through the leveraging of existing standards by 1EdTech, such as OpenID Connect, creating a proof of Concept for these use cases seemed viable. In this presentation, we will show the flows that have been created. Provide insights into the build of the platform, and the challenges we are currently facing. Participants will be encouraged to come up with use cases for this platform.
