[Opensim-users] OSCC21 Audience Feature Suggestions

[Kay McLennan]

As a college instructor, my vote is for a viewer that can be integrated
into the Canvas learning management system (or LMS).  Canvas is an open
source LMS that easily enables the integration of LTI apps into the
platform.  For example, Zoom is an app that resides on my laptop but I can
integrate it into each of my Canvas course sites (for easy student access
to real time Zoom sessions).  Note: To integrate Zoom into a Canvas course
site, each class member (and me) need a Zoom account.  Further, I need to
"make the connection" to the Zoom LTI app in each course site in Canvas
(but the enhanced usability of integration into a course site is worth the
extra step).

Similar to the enhanced usability of Zoom in my courses (due to its
integration into Canvas),* the ability to integrate an OpenSimulator viewer
into Canvas would be a sea-change for the [expanded] education-related use
of OpenSimulator.  *

Thank you in advance (and while I cannot recall whether I ever requested an
opensimulator.org account, I just requested an account). -- Kay McLennan
