Please note that once you have created a course site, if you want to combine or separate shells you will need to contact e-Learning Support by either email at learning-support@ufl.edu or by phone at (352) 392 – 4357 option 3.
Additionally, No changes will be made to course sites after the drop/add period. We will not separate or combine courses after the Drop/add period because once students submit work those submissions will be removed from the course when the student is moved to a new course site. However, if the Registrar creates a new section, we can add those new sections to the specified course site.
Add a Section to an Existing e-Learning Course Site
To add a section to an existing e-Learning course site, you will first need to request a course shell for that section via myUFL by navigating to Main Menu > Student Information System > Online Learning > Canvas Course Request. Once the shell has been requested, please contact e-Learning Support at 352-392-4357 option 3 so they can assist with adding the section to your course shell.
If you have questions or problems with your course request please call (352) 392-4357 option 3, or e-mail us at learning-support@ufl.edu.
