There are many free-to-use LTI apps out there. Often, you don't even need to sign up for a third-party account to get these awesome tools into your account. Here are some examples that work great in PowerSchool Learning.
Hint: If a tool does not require a unique Key or Secret, just enter "none" in the configuration field for that item. Some applications have both free content and interactive content. If you have an account with one of these providers, you may want to reach out to the tool providers and obtain your individual Key and Secret before adding it to your domain, if they support this process.
