Google recently announced that Google Workspace Assignments LTI™ and Gemini LTI™ are now available for Moodle. This update, released on May 12, 2026, allows educators and administrators to integrate Google Workspace tools directly into their Moodle courses. This integration streamlines assignment management and enhances collaboration within the platform, making it easier to create, distribute, and grade assignments.
Why You Should Care
With this new integration, you can seamlessly manage assignments directly from Moodle, leveraging the power of Google Workspace. You can create assignments in Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, and automatically sync them with Moodle. This means less time spent on administrative tasks and more time focused on teaching or project management. You’ll also benefit from enhanced collaboration features, making it easier for students or team members to work together.
