Importing an Activity

Activities and resources can be imported from any other course that the instructor has edit permission in. This allows an instructor to re-use instead of re-creating one or more activities or resources.

Step-by-step Guide

To import activities and resources:

1. Go to the course in question

2. Go to Course Administration > Import

3. Select the course you wish to import from and click "Continue".

4. You will be presented with the "backup settings" page. Use the check boxes for import activities, blocks and/or filters as types of items which will show on the next screen.

5. Select the elements you want to include in the import in the "Schema" settings step.

6. Review and click "Perform import" or click the cancel or previous buttons. The confirmation page will place green check marks and red marks next to the backup settings and include item list for you to review.

7. You should see the "Import complete. Click continue to return to the course." message, or an error message indicating that the import process did not take place.
