Our users want a choice of cloud service. We believe that all users must be able to quickly and easily use their favorite cloud resources in itslearning. We want to remove barriers to accessing cloud services, and make sure that linking accounts from itslearning to the cloud is as simple as possible.
We want our users to have the leading Office 365 and Google Apps integration.

Students and teachers should be able to collaborate on documents in the cloud directly from itslearning. Everyone can link to, view and edit cloud files through their preferred cloud file viewer directly from itslearning.

Teachers can easily use cloud resources in tasks, planner, assignment or course. They can use the great collaboration tools from Google Apps for Education or Microsoft Office to create secure, shared work-spaces for whole classes or groups of students. Teachers can create a shared collaborative document with a few taps and let the shared learning process begin.

We are also going to provide a single place to view all of the files you have uploaded or linked to itslearning – making it easier to reuse files from your device or the cloud.

We want itslearning to be a student’s one-stop-shop for grades, allowing them to quickly check grades on the device of their choosing.

This does require teachers to put those grades in first, so our gradebook works intuitively and relevant grades are exported to the SIS.

In addition, our assessment tools invite teachers to do these activities online.

Students can take a test or submit an assignment on the device of their choosing. Assignment answers can be submitted via their cloud service, such as Google Drive or One Drive.

To streamline the assessment process, teachers can view submitted documents without the need of downloading them first and can make annotations on the fly.

To lower the threshold to start with online assessment activities, we will make it possible to share them with each other via the Library.

The itslearning library is our education focused learning object repository. Based on regional, national and international standard and tagging it creates a great space for finding, sharing and re-using content from teachers and the top educational publishers.

We want to have the best LMS ecosystem for sharing educational tools and resources – this can help share knowledge, resources and make the job of teaching easier. We want to make the itslearning library our teacher’s preferred tool for searching, creating, and sharing learning resources. Today we have some customers with over 2 million resources in their itslearning library and we are improving the search usability to make finding the right content as simple as possible.

We will include better searching across the different standard systems used by different districts to improve search results (standards cross-walking).

We want to build on the 20+ national and international publishers who have added their content to itslearning. We will extend the options for importing and managing publisher content. We will give publishers more viability of usage so they can target their content to better support key educational challenges.

Our key themes all interrelate to make the itslearning library the heart of our teaching ecosystem.
