Integration

If you are at a School & District licensed organization that uses Canvas, your Jupiter administrator will be able to add Formative as an external app to Jupiter through LTI. Once installed, you will be able to open Formative in Jupiter, and create Jupiter assignments that include formatives. Students will then be able to log in to Jupiter to take formatives. You can even pass grades back from Formative to Jupiter's grade book, too!

Assign a Formative via Jupiter

  1. Begin by logging into JupiterEd

  2. Go to Grades > Assignments

    1. Set a title

    2. There must be a minimum point value in order to passback grades

    3. Adjust additional settings as needed

  3. Select Attach > Formative

  4. Click Select assignment

  5. If you see this screen, select submit

  6. Either choose an existing Formative from the list, or click +New Formative to create a new one

  7. You will be re-directed back to your assignment screen in Jupiter. From there, either click 'Formative' or 'Attach>Formative' once again, and then click 'Preview' to open the selected formative in a new tab

  8. Within the selected formative, either create your formative from scratch if you selected to create a new one or review the existing formative and edit it if needed

  9. Once your formative is ready, click 'Assign' at the top right corner and locate the Formative class corresponding to your Jupiter class from the list

  10. Click on the arrow next to the class name to open the assign settings window
