To copy a course in Canvas, use the "Import Existing Content" feature within your Canvas course shell. Here's how:
-
Navigate to your Canvas course: Access the Canvas course where you want to import the content.
-
Access "Import Existing Content": On the right side of your course homepage, find and click the "Import Existing Content" button.
-
Select "Copy a Canvas Course": Under the "Content Type" dropdown menu, choose "Copy a Canvas Course."
-
Search for the course to copy from: In the "Search for a course" text box, begin typing the name of the Canvas course you want to copy. As you type, a list of matching courses will appear. Select the correct course from the auto-populated list.
That's it! You've initiated the course copy process. You'll then be able to choose to import all content or select specific content to copy. You can also adjust content settings during the import process.
