With the summer semester approaching, I would like to use this tech tip as a reminder of the usefulness of coping courses. You can copy course(s) from previous semesters to upcoming summer 2020 semester. This will save you time as you prepare your materials.
Please find the documentation for copying course on our faculty resources website located at:
https://www.dctc.edu/DCTC/assets/File/pdf/faculty-resources/Copy-Course-Materials-Instructions.pdf
Some things to keep in mind when copying courses from previous semesters:
- If you would like to use someone else’s course, be sure obtain permission from the owner of the course in writing. Then let the D2L Brightspace site administrator know, so they can assist with the course copy. The D2L Brightspace site administrator will need to see the permission granted in writing.
- Make sure the following tool are up to date:
- Announcements
- Assignments
- Calendar items
- Content
- Discussions
- Intelligent agents
- Quizzes
- Rubrics
- Make sure the course dates are correct
If you have any question about copying courses, please reach out to your campus D2L Brightspace administrator.
