In this paper we discuss the implementation of the LAMS Tool Contract to include Moodle learning activities within the highly visual context of the Learning Activity Management System (LAMS). We aim to show how learning tools, from different Learning Management Systems, (LMS) can be included in a visual learning design environment such LAMS using a common interface (LAMS Tool Contract). In addition, we present an example of tool interoperability where learning activities can be used in complex and sophisticated learning designs using LAMS.
