When you copy course materials into an existing course, the existing course might already have content and tools in the course menu. The course menu might have the same name and type or the names and types might be different between the two courses.
About course materials. When you copy a course, you choose which course materials to include. For example, you can include content areas, collaboration sessions, and contacts, but exclude journal entries. If you create a new course, you must select at least one of these areas: Content, Contacts, or Settings.
For example, the destination course has a content area called "Tools" that contains blogs and journals. The source course has a content area called "Tools" that contains course files. After the copy, the destination course has two content areas: the original "Tools" and the new "Tools1.".
The course you copy is called the "source course.". The course you create or add materials to is called the "destination course.". You can also copy several courses at one time with a batch file. More on creating courses by using batch files.
An exact copy creates a new course and includes course materials, user enrollments, and staff assignments. For example, if a course is split into multiple sections to accommodate a large number of students, you can make an exact copy and then adjust the enrollment to create two sections of the same course.
If you're creating a course that has many of the same features as an existing course, you can copy the existing course to create a new course. You can copy all course materials or a subset of course materials into a new or existing course. You also have the option to include or exclude user enrollments from the destination course.
From your course list, select the course you wish to copy FROM (the source course).
Mason generally recommends the default Copy links and copies of the content option. However, if you have content stored, but not available to students, in your course or you have video package files (e.g., Camtasia) choose the third Copy links and copies of the content (include entire course home folder) option. Click Submit when you are done.
