Simplify bulk course tasks

Status:

Theme Overview

Performing bulk course tasks can be repetitive, time-consuming, and error-prone.

What value could this provide to users?

Admins and instructors can share content and announcements to multiple courses at the same time
Blueprints are refined, cleaning up the copy and delete workflows to make them easier to use
Add bulk delete, select, edit functionality where possible (e.g. batch edit for assignment due dates)
Admins and instructors have more granular control over what is copied/imported when copying/importing content in a course, reducing clean up in the destination course
