Welcome to eLearning at UWF! eLearning (elearning.uwf.edu) is the learning management system used for online courses at UWF.  Whether your course is fully-online, blended, or face-to-face, many instructors use eLearning to provide access to course resources, activities, assessments, and grades. You may have used eLearning in other classes and have probably noticed that not all online courses are alike. Here are some basic things that you should know to find your way around eLearning and how to get help when you need it, in order to be a successful online learner.

Campus Resources

As an online student, it can sometimes feel like it’s harder to access academic resources since you’re not always on campus, but that doesn’t have to be the case. There are several digital-based resources offered through UWF and other institutions that are specialized for online learners.

  • Monday - Thursday: 8:00am - 7:00PM
