<p>
<b>LTI Consumer:</b><br /> 这是使用工具的服务。通常这是一个 <a class="mw-redirect" title="Learning Management System" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_Management_System">学习管理系统</a> (LMS) 或者 <a title="Intranet portal" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intranet_portal">用户门户</a>。LTI Consumer需要提供用户信息和环境给LTI Tool Provider。此外LTI Consumer还要为用户提供认证担保给LTI Tool Provider。

<p>
<b>LTI Tool Provider:</b> 这是给LTI Consumer提供服务的服务。这可以是<a title="On-premises software" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-premises_software"> on-premises software </a> 也可以是托管在LTI Cousumer外部的服务。<sup id="cite_ref-LTI1_2-1" class="reference"><br /> </sup>
