The AZ CTE LTI Tool is currently incompatible with Safari 13+. We recommend using the LTI with Chrome or Firefox while we work to fix this. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Overview

Content Selection

The LTI tool allows any educator to browse and embed media objects alongside other content within assignments, or select content which comprises entire modules, lessons, or units. All users are able to search content added to CTE Curriculum Connection  Collections. Additionally, users can also browse or search content from Group Shared Folders and personal My Items libraries, if that content has been configured and made available. 


Authentication and Account Provisioning

The tool provides automated authentication and new account provisioning, providing users with an "SSO like" experience. The LTI key/secret pair can also be configured to automatically add new users to an CTE Curriculum Connection  Group. 

LTI Tool Preview Images

Some basic preview images of the tool have been included below. More details about using the LTI tool are available in the "Using the LTI tool" section of this guide.

Safari SSO Issue

If you are using Safari 13+ the solution below will not work, due to updates with the way 3rd party cookies are handled.  We recommend using Firefox or Chrome instead. 

 

If you are using Safari 12 or earlier: 

The Problem: I am using Safari and I can’t seem to login to the LTI Tool no matter what I do! I’ve even tried changing my password via reset password from email, and it still doesn’t work. 


The Solution: 

  1. Check your cookie settings, and make sure you are allowing third-party cookies. If you are strict about your cookie settings, you may need to whitelist vivaopen.oercommons.org 

  2. Close out of the LTI Tool

  3. Open the Homepage https://azcte.oercommons.org/ in a new tab 

  4. Launch the LTI tool again 


The Reason


Safari does a lot to protect your privacy, and ensure third parties aren’t tracking you without your consent. Because of this, Safari won’t allow third parties to set cookie information, if it looks like you haven’t visited the site recently. This means we can’t set an SSO cookie if you’ve recently cleared your history, are using Safari for the first time, or are using Safari on a new device. Opening the CTE Curriculum Connection  Homepage will fix this problem, because it indicates to Safari that CTE Curriculum Connection  is a site you use intentionally.
