Set Up Wonda as an "External Tool" in Canvas

1. In Canvas, create a new Course by clicking on "Start a New Course"

2. Scroll down on the left panel and open settings, then select the Apps panel and click on the grey button "View App Configuration"

3. From here, create a new App by clicking on "+ App"

4. Select "Paste XML", type "Wonda" as name, then copy the Consumer Key and Secret Key from your Wonda LTI tab. Then copy the LTI Configuration url in a third tab and copy/paste the XML in the last field like below.

5. The “Privacy Level” of the app should be “Public”, or at least “email only”, as LTI will try to connect to an existing Wonda account with the email address

You are done!

At this point, any instructor can create a new course in Canvas and use this Wonda App in Canvas to show a course.

Import a new Wonda Simulation as a Course in Canvas using LTI Deep Linking

Once the above set up is completed, any instructor who created a course in Wonda can import it in Canvas using the following steps:

  • Go to your Home in Canvas and add a new Assignment. When picking the Submission Type, select a new External Tool and select Wonda in the list.
    Note: LTI Grade passback will only work if you integrate a Wonda Simulation as part of an Assignment.

  • A Selection Menu will appear with all Wonda Content available to your account, select the Wonda Simulation you want to integrate
    Note: The email address of the Canvas user must correspond to a Wonda account to allow the content selection. If it is not the case, please refer to manual import method described further.

  • In the Tool Configuration, check that the Load in a new tab is selected

  • Click on Add Item, you can now add other contents and publish your course by ticking the checkbox (it should become green)


Test the integration is working properly:

Click on the Student View on the top right corner, you should be able to see your Wonda Simulation in the Canvas course.
