Creating a course based on an existing course

Teachers and Program Administrators may use this option to create a course based on another course previously created. Selecting this option will allow the transferring of Assignments, Resources or Events from the previous course.

The below steps provide instructions on how to accomplish this task.
  1. Click on the SETTINGS tab.

  2. Under the Course Management tab, click on Create a new course.


  3. Click on New course based upon an existing course.
    Note: Click here for more information about selecting course types.

  4. Enter the Course name, Course end date, and then select the existing Course from the drop-down list. Select what you want to transfer to the new course (Assignments, Resources, or Events).
  5. Click on Submit. 
      
  6. The course summary page shows the Course Name, Course ID, Product, and Course End Date. Share the Course ID with students wishing to join your course.  Click on Print (A) to generate a PDF document of the course information. This document also provides instruction for students wanting to join your course.

About Transferring Assignments, Resources, and Events to a new course 
  • Transferring Assignments (Assigned practices and tests)
    Any test or assignment that has not yet expired will be transferred to your new course. Upon enrolling on the course, a student will receive these tests and assignments.
    The lower half of the screen displays the potential tests and assignments, and so you can select all or any of the tasks you wish to transfer.

  • Transferring Resources
    If you have added additional resources for your students to view, then you can transfer these across as well.

  • Transferring Events
    If your existing course had calendar events set up, you can choose to carry these across to the new course and students will see these in their calendars.
    Note: This option is not available when creating a course based upon a course master.
