---------------------------------------------
IMPORTING CONTENT FROM ONE SITE TO ANOTHER
1) Click on the TAB of your new site.
2) Click on Site Info.
3) Click on 'Import from Site' (far right)
4) Choose the site from where you want to import content
5) Choose materials that you want to import (announcements, resources, etc.)
5) Finish the process to complete the importation.
Go to your new site to set dates for the new term and make whatever adjustments you need.
Assignments and announcements are imported "as draft" (shown in red). You can 'revise' them, adjust dates, and re-post them to make them visible to students. If you import announcements from a previous site, and you don't want them, check the remove button on the far right, and click on 'update'
(bottom) to remove it from your site.
NOTES:
- Tests and Modules are not imported through the 'import from site' process.
Export your exams, as you need to administer them through the term, on your desktop, and then import them into your new site. Students don't see unpublished or closed exams, so it is not necessary to publish all of them in advance.
- Likewise, use the export/import feature of the Modules tool to port your lessons over. This is a two clicks process. Go to Modules of your original site >> Manage >> Export the content in a zip file on your desktop. Then, go to your new site, click on Modules >> Manage >> Import the zip file from your desktop onto your new site.
- The syllabus does not support import/export yet (it will for winter, 2007). You'll need to recreate it.
