Partnering for Success: How Hypothesis Works with Your Institution to Achieve Goals
When your institution adopts new technology, you want more than just another tool. You want a partner—someone who understands your goals, supports your faculty, and helps you scale impact across your campus.
That’s where Hypothesis stands out.
We don’t just integrate into your LMS. We collaborate with your team to ensure faculty success, student engagement, and long-term results aligned with your institutional priorities. Here’s how that partnership works.
Fast, Supported LMS Integration
Whether you’re using Canvas, Blackboard, D2L Brightspace, or Moodle, Hypothesis integrates directly into your LMS—no new logins, no new platforms. Our team works closely with your IT or instructional design staff to make setup smooth and fast.
“The integration was fast and painless—‘10 to 15 minutes’ according to Merilee—and made the tool far more accessible to faculty across disciplines.”
—West Liberty University Case Study
Within minutes, your faculty can start assigning collaborative, in-text annotations that drive deeper engagement.
Hands-On Onboarding and Professional Development
We don’t just hand off a user guide and wish you luck. Hypothesis offers tailored onboarding for each institution. That includes live trainings, custom webinars, asynchronous materials, and responsive support.
“The support you provide to institutions and directly to faculty is amazing—it was a no-brainer decision for us.”
—West Liberty University Case Study
Our PD sessions often become a hub for collaboration—where faculty not only learn the tool but start sharing use cases and ideas with each other.
Driving Adoption with Real Results
One of the most rewarding parts of our partnerships is helping schools move from pilot to campus-wide success. We collaborate with your Center for Teaching and Learning or instructional design team to identify champions, track usage, and build momentum across departments.
“It’s been particularly helpful to develop champions—power users of Hypothesis—who can share their success stories with other faculty.”
—West Liberty University Case Study
When faculty see how annotation improves discussion, writing, and engagement, word spreads naturally.
Flexible Use Across Disciplines
Hypothesis isn’t just for English or humanities courses. Our partners use it in STEM, health sciences, business, and more. With support for PDFs, websites, and image/data annotation, it adapts to a wide range of course materials.
“I’m especially excited to annotate images and data. Our science faculty could use it to mark up things like x-rays, images, or graphs.”
—West Liberty University Case Study
Faculty can begin with a single assignment—and expand as creativity and confidence grow.
Meeting Institutional Goals That Matter
Every institution is navigating challenges around student engagement, AI in the classroom, authentic assessment, and scalable pedagogy. Hypothesis helps tackle these priorities directly.
“Annotation assignments offer a more reflective, authentic, AI-resistant alternative.”
—Jaclyn Miller, South Texas College Webinar
Because social annotation makes thinking visible and interactive, it supports not only academic integrity but also retention, equity, and student-centered learning.
A Partnership That Grows With You
Hypothesis isn’t just a plug-and-play app. It’s a long-term teaching partner. We’ll help you get started. We’ll help you scale. And we’ll be here to help you grow your impact—across disciplines, across campuses, across semesters.
