If your LMS supports IMS Learning Tools Interoperabilty® version 1.x, you can login, and request access to the tools on this site. Make sure you indicate whether you need an LTI 1.x key. You will be given instructions on how to use your credentials once you get your key.
Download course material as an IMS Common Cartridge®, to import into an LMS like Sakai, Moodle, Canvas, Desire2Learn, Blackboard, or similar. After loading the Cartridge, you will need an LTI key and secret to provision the LTI-based tools provided in that cartridge.
If your LMS supports Learning Tools Interoperability® Content-Item Message you can login and apply for an LTI 1.x key and secret and install this web site into your LMS as an App Store / Learning Object Repository that allows you to author you class in your LMS while selecting tools and content from this site one item at a time. You will be given instructions on how to set up the "app store" in your LMS when you receive your key and secret.
If your LMS supports neither Content Item, nor Common Cartridge, but does support LTI, you can hand-copy the links from this course material into your LMS one-by-one. We have a special low-style view of the lessons to make this hand-copying as easy as it can be.
