Canvas LMS
Also known as canvas · instructure canvas
Canvas LMS is a cloud-hosted learning management system made by Instructure, used by many universities and schools to run courses, assignments and gradebooks.
Canvas launched in 2011 with an open-source core, though most institutions use Instructure's hosted service. External tools usually connect through LTI, and Canvas supports LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage, so a tool can add content to a course and send grades to the Canvas gradebook.
Node XR lists Canvas with SCORM and LTI 1.3 launch, and states that grades sync to the gradebook.
