Why Use LTI to Integrate Quizizz with Your LMS: Benefits & FAQs

Embedding Quizizz to your LMS using LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) makes it easier for teachers to assign resources and for students to access and complete them, all from within a single platform.

This is a smarter, faster way to assign, complete, and grade resources right from your LMS. This integration supports a smoother workflow for educators, removes login barriers for students, and ensures that grades are automatically reflected in the LMS gradebook.

FAQs

Q: Which LMS platforms currently support LTI integration with Quizizz?

We currently support LTI integrations for Canvas, Schoology, Moodle, Blackboard, Brightspace, and Toddle. We will soon support more LMS platforms, so stay tuned!

Q: I have already imported classes from Canvas and Schoology to Quizizz. What happens to those classes when my school switches to the LTI integration?

You won’t lose any data. All your previous sessions and performance reports will still be available. However, your manually imported classes will be archived. From now on, when you assign a session via your LMS, new classes will be created automatically in Quizizz, linked directly to your LMS courses.

Q. How long does setting up the LTI integration with our LMS typically take?

Most schools are able to complete the setup process in under 30 minutes. The integration is simple and can be done without disrupting any ongoing sessions or classes.

Q. Can we continue using our existing LMS setup while transitioning to the LTI integration?

Yes, you can temporarily use both in parallel. This allows for a smooth and flexible transition without disruption to current workflows.

Q. Will teachers need to manually re-import or recreate their classes on Quizizz after the switch to LTI integration?

Not at all. Once the LTI integration is active, teachers can assign sessions directly from their LMS, and corresponding classes will automatically appear on Quizizz. There’s no need to re-import or set up anything manually. Just keep in mind that existing classes will eventually be archived.
