Description

Problem

Currently, Open edX does not emit a dedicated event when an LTI 1.1 XBlock reports a grade back to the platform.

Proposal

Introduce a new event in openedx-events that is emitted when an LTI 1.1 XBlock is graded.

The event should:

  • Represent the grading of LTI 1.1 content

  • Include the relevant grading context (course, block, learner, grade)

  • Follow existing Open edX event and schema conventions

Additional context

A draft implementation has been proposed in: https://github.com/openedx/openedx-events/pull/540

Research direction

Start by reviewing the draft implementation in pull request #540 and compare it with existing Open edX event and schema conventions. Confirm that the event represents LTI 1.1 grading and includes course, block, learner, and grade context; done means the proposed event is complete and consistent with those conventions.
