San Jose, CA, August 3, 2017 — PRNewswire — OpenEd, an ACT product and creator of the leading online library of standards-aligned resources for K-12 teachers, today announced new EdTech partner integrations made possible through OpenEd’s API and related IMS standards.
“ACT sees a near future where the majority of Learning Management and Assessment companies offer educational resources seamlessly within their platforms, saving teachers time and helping them find the most effective resources,” said Adam Blum, architect of the OpenEd product.
New Partners include:
itslearning:
The itslearning LMS solution allows school districts to truly personalize learning by putting curriculum resources, instructional strategies, standards-based lesson plans, content and assessments, all in one easy-to-access central location. OpenEd resources are now available within the itslearning search engine through the OpenEd API.
“We believe that in their efforts to access the best available OERs, teachers and students need a ‘Best in Class’ user experience, directly within the learning management system. Our API and IMS Global™ integration partnership with OpenEd will serve to further access to high quality, vetted and aligned OER content for a large variety of subject areas,” said Bailey Mitchell, chief academic officer, itslearning. “We are excited about enabling schools and districts to better leverage their curriculum acquisition funds by using a blend of free and paid learning resources, activities and assessments.
