To be able to add Möbius content to your Minerva module, you will first need to add the Möbius LTI link to your module. You will then be able use this link to point to new or existing Möbius content.

1. Log into Minerva and open the module you want to add Möbius to.

2. In the Module Content area, move your mouse to where you want to add content, select the + icon and choose Content Market from the menu that is displayed. This will open the Content Market side panel.

3. From the options available, find the Möbius Pilot tile and click the small + icon located in the bottom right.

4. A Möbius Pilot link will then be added to your module's Module Content area, (the link is hidden from students by default, to change the visibility of the link, click Hidden from students to open the visibility settings and choose as preferred). Click the Möbius Pilot link.

5. The Möbius Terms of Use and Privacy Policy will be displayed on screen. You will need to click Accept to finish setting up the link.

After clicking Accept you will be taken to the Möbius LTI Launch page, where you have the option to create links to an assignment or lesson, gradebook or home page. Each of these options are covered in the sections below:

Create a Link to a Class Home Page
Create a Link to an Assignment or Lesson
Create a Link to the Systems Home Page
- Please do not give students access to the Link to the Systems Home Page. The System Home Page contains links to all the modules you are currently enrolled on and every Möbius class you have ever accessed from within Minerva and therefore can be useful for staff working in multiple Möbius classes at a time but is not meant for students.

Create a Link to a Class Home Page

This kind of link takes your students to a Class Home Page, where they will be able to see any Lessons or Assignments that are visible to them. The start and end date of the Lesson or Assignment is enforced so they only see ones that fall within the appropriate window of time. You will be able to access the Proctor Tools, Content Repository and Gradebook from the Class Home page. The Content Repository is where Questions, Interactive Narratives, Lessons, Assignments, and other files are stored.

Please note: If an Assignment has been linked to a grade item in the Minerva Gradebook, you should ensure you set up a gradeable item in the Gradebook for the Assignment before students start to submit their work. Failure to do will result in the Möbius grade not transferring to the Minerva Gradebook properly.
