Executive Summary: As nations digitize education, the lack of interoperability between different learning platforms creates fragmented data and stifles innovation. P-Access advocates for universal adoption of LTI 1.3 as the minimum technical standard to ensure seamless data flow and student progress tracking.

Impact on Global Standards: Fragmented EdTech ecosystems lead to inconsistent learning experiences and data silos, hindering national efforts to benchmark student performance against international norms. LTI 1.3 compliance ensures that all digital tools can “speak” to each other, creating a unified learning environment.

P-Access Recommendation: Ministries of Education should mandate LTI 1.3 compliance for all new EdTech procurement contracts. This policy shift will unlock greater flexibility for educators and provide comprehensive data for policy evaluation.
