Who is this guide for?
This guide is for Moodle LMS administrators and Mentimeter Admins who want to connect Mentimeter to their institution’s Moodle environment.
Note: In order for your instructors to sync grades, you will need to also enable "Show Participant Names", by toggling it on under Workspace Settings > Permissions
Step 1: Create a new LTI integration in Mentimeter
Log into Mentimeter
Navigate to Workspace settings > LTI Integration
Click + Generate URL.
A new Dynamic Registration URL will be generated. Copy this URL, and continue to step 2.
Note: You can create multiple integrations from your Mentimeter workspace. Each integration connects your workspace in Mentimeter to your Canvas instance.
Step 2: Add the LTI tool to your Moodle Account and Course
Log into Moodle as an admin.
Go to Site administration > Plugins > External tool > Manage tools
Paste the URL you have copied in the "Tool URL" field under Add tool.
Click "Add LTI Advantage"
You will now see it added, but not yet activated under "Tools". Should you wish to check the settings, you can do so now, by clicking the pencil "edit" icon.
See the yellow box below for which settings can be edited, and which are required.
Now click to activate, and the tool is ready to use in all courses.
Should you wish to make it invisible for a course, you can do so by entering the Course, then navigating to More > LTI External tools and toggling off the option to "show in activity chooser"
Site administration > Plugins > External tool > Manage tools walkthrough:
Services: You can see under services that we use the IMS LTI Assignment and Grade services - this is required for grading purposes.
Privacy settings: The integration supports all data options. You choose how much data to share with us. The integration supports all options, but if you choose "Never" for name and email sharing, the experience when seeing participant names during a Menti will be sup-optimal as you see an anonymous ID, e.g. "Student-123456" instead of a student's name.
