Full Text

At Boundless, we want students and educators to have the best materials at their fingertips. We work with the top learning management systems to ensure that our content can be delivered through your school's preferred platform.

What is an LMS?

A learning management system (commonly abbreviated LMS) is software that schools or educators can use to deliver content, assignments, and grades to their students. There are many different LMSs on the market to help colleges and universities with the difficult task of staying organized, tracking grades, and distributing course materials.

Boundless Integrations

Boundless integrates seamlessly with four of the leading LMSs on the market: Canvas, Blackboard, Desire2Learn, and Moodle. If you or your school uses one of these, we can deliver Boundless content and assignments straight to your students without them ever having to leave the comfort of their LMS!

All of our integrations report student grades on quiz and reading assignments directly to the grade center of the LMS, and you can choose to set the number of points per assignment as you would with any non-Boundless homework or quiz. But you can still click into the assignments to get the unique Boundless breakdown of student performance, all within your LMS platform.

Help—I don't use an LMS!

Never fear—Boundless offers a basic learning management platform on our own website. All you have to do as an educator is create a class, assign a Boundless textbook (or one you've customized yourself), and invite your students via the course invite link. You can start creating reading and quiz assignments in seconds!

Boundless learning management platform

You can still create courses and assignments for your students on boundless.com's own learning management platform, even if you don't use an external LMS.
