Import course data

Please refer to these notes before editing this page.

Course data may be imported from any other course for which the teacher has editing rights. This will allow teachers to re-use instead of re-creating one or more activities and resources(objects).

This feature will not import student or teacher data, such as forum posts and discussions. It will only import the structure of such activities.
