Instructors can now use the Copy Code from another course to import course content. This allows instructors to import tasks, activities, and rubrics without being an instructor in that other course.

Get Copy Code

First, ask the instructor of the other course for the Copy Code. It can be found by the course instructor at the bottom of Basic Course Settings,

or the course "About" page.

Import the Course Content

Import Tasks or Activities

Step 1: Click "Import Tasks" from the Task settings dropdown in a Classic course:

or click "+Import Activities" under the Pathway course title:

Step 2: Once you open the Import popup, select the import via Copy Code option and paste in the Copy Code:

Step 3: Once you input a valid Copy Code, the course name you are importing from will appear under the input box. You will then be able to select items you would like to import and manage the import settings. 

Step 4: If the imported content links to GradeBook items, you will be prompted to review their names and due dates.

Once you successfully import the content, it will appear at the bottom of your task list (in a Classic course) or course path (in a Pathway course). You can move them to an ideal location.
