Building Scalable IMS LTI Tools Using the TSUGI Framework is a presentation about Tsugi, an open source PHP framework that allows tools to be installed and run within its hosting container. Tsugi aims to provide a portable way for tools to integrate with multiple learning management systems through standards like IMS LTI while keeping user data secure. The presentation demonstrates how Tsugi works and its potential to support future specifications beyond LTI.

- 5. Project Tsugi • Tool Hosting Container (i.e. Like a B2) – PHP now, Java planned • Based on IMS Specifications – LTI 1.x / LTI 2.x / IMS Settings / Common Cartridge / Caliper / CASA / Roster / Gradebook / .... • Tools can run on a campus hosting platform or commercial provider or cloud • Tools are "installed" into hosting containers
- 6. From the 2003 Sakai Proposal http://www-personal.umich.edu/~csev/papers/2004/2004_03_01_mellon_sakai_proposal.pdf

- 10. Sakai • Where is the user data?? • What happens when there are 50 apps? • What if the app is free and hosted by a professor? • What happens if we stop paying the license?
- 12. LTI 1.x versus LTI 2.x and Beyond • LTI 1.x – Three pages of spec and some "hello world" code • LTI 2.x – Several specs – multiple interactions – We will need to share common implementations across instructions • And what about Caliper, Casa, xAPI, etc. ??

- 28. PHP Tsugi Next Steps • Promotion to get more eyes on Tsugi • Architecture Review / Critique • IMS LTI 2.0 Support (done) • Improve Internationalization • IMS Caliper Support • IMS Casa Support Tsugi is in 24x7 production and I can support a few experimenters on my servers.
