  • Welcome to the LMS Student Help Site

  • LMS is the Learning Management System here at UWA that provides staff and students with a password protected, online learning environment. LMS is based on open-source software known as Moodle (an acronym for Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment).Your lecturer may create an LMS unit for the unit you are studying and include a suite of resources and activities.

    LMS Student Help Site is designed to help by taking you through some of the features that may be available in your online LMS units. This is done through printable screen captures with step by step instructions demonstrating how to navigate LMS and use activities such as forums, quizzes and assignments.
