The Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE) is UCSF’s space for online teaching and learning. It can be accessed through a web browser and is best supported by Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. Users can also download the mobile app to navigate CLE content.
Other content that is embedded into the CLE, like Class Capture or Articulate modules, may work better in certain browsers than others.
To access the CLE through a web browser:
- Log on to the CLE (cle.ucsf.edu).

The CLE is accessible via the Moodle mobile app. One of the advantages of using the mobile app is that users can view course activities and download materials for offline use. This allows students to download lecture notes at home and then read them when they are on the go without using their mobile data or WIFI.
The Moodle Mobile app is available for free from Google Play and the Apple Store.
