Keep the LMS you already have.
Reasonline is designed to add an evidence-centered learning and assessment layer without requiring an institution to replace its core academic systems. Your LMS can continue managing enrollment, course content, deadlines, grades, and administration.
Reasonline focuses on a different part of the academic experience: purposeful AI-supported learning, capability evidence, adaptive assessment, Evidence Context, and useful next-step decisions.
Standards-based integration is already part of the architecture.
Students and instructors launch from the course where the work already lives; approved grades or feedback return through the configured integration once review is complete.
LTI 1.3 OIDC launch
Secure launch for instructors and students, already signed in, when configured by the institution — no separate account creation.
Deep Linking
Instructors add or select a Reasonline assignment from the LMS's own content picker instead of pasting a share-link URL.
Assignment and Grade Services
Approved scores and, when released, feedback comments return automatically to the gradebook after instructor review.
Roster and role handling
Institution, administrator, instructor, and student roles map into school-scoped access, enforced server-side.
Built to a standard is not the same as validated everywhere.
Canvas, Blackboard, D2L Brightspace, and Moodle all support standards-based integration patterns, but real institutional environments differ. Authentication configuration, role mapping, course structure, grade workflows, permissions, local settings, and institutional governance can all affect deployment. Named-LMS production support is claimed only after real validation.
Public implementation status
“Built to the standard” and “validated in production” are different claims — we don’t list an LMS as supported until real launch, role, and grade-return workflows have been tested in that environment.
| Capability / LMS | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| LTI 1.3 core launch | Available | Built and verified against a reference LTI 1.3 test platform |
| Deep Linking | Available | Built and verified against a reference LTI 1.3 test platform |
| Grade passback (AGS) | Available | Built and verified against a reference LTI 1.3 test platform |
| Canvas | Not yet tested | No production Canvas instance has run these flows yet |
| Blackboard | Not yet tested | No production Blackboard instance has run these flows yet |
| D2L Brightspace | Not yet tested | No production Brightspace instance has run these flows yet |
| Moodle | Not yet tested | No production Moodle instance has run these flows yet |
Integration can follow the value case.
A pilot does not always need to begin with a full LMS implementation. For some institutions, a reasonable sequence may be: Start standalone → validate academic value → test institutional workflows → integrate where scale justifies it. For another institution, integration may be important from the start. The right path depends on the pilot.
Learn does not change the integration philosophy.
Reasonline Learn may host structured Learning Experiences, evidence, and Learning Intelligence while the LMS remains the familiar home for the course. Adding Learn does not require Reasonline to become the institution’s enrollment system, gradebook, content repository, or administrative platform.
At larger scale, integration can involve identity and role mapping, roster workflows, grade-return decisions, retention requirements, security review, accessibility requirements, data governance, and pilot-specific implementation planning. Reasonline’s institutional pricing and pilot model reflect that reality rather than treating integration as a checkbox beside a logo.
