Teaching and learning platforms, course catalog

LSF, Moodle, Microsoft Teams

Course directory: All departmental courses are listed in the course directory (LSF) maintained by the university.

Most of the Department of English staff host their courses on the learning management system Moodle, the digital teaching and learning platform used round the world. All registered students simply use their UdS login and password to access the system. Surf to the moodle here. Many instructors use Microsoft Teams to host various aspects of their courses as well. In general, you will hear from your instructors at the begin of the semester whether they are running their courses via moodle, MS Teams, or a mixture of both.
