Creating an assignment or Module for Multiple classes at the same time

I have seven classes. It takes forever to create an assignment and then import or copy to other courses. Is it possible to create one assignment for all classes at the same time? In my old Focus Portal, I could upload files in one place and every section attached could go and get the assignment or file with ONE upload.

 

I would also like to be able to blast an announcement to reach every student instead of creating 7 different announcements. Is this possible?

 

Thanks for any help.

Are you copy/pasting assignment text, or using the new Copy assignment tool.  The copy assignment tool has to be turned on by your Canvas Admin.  It works really well and saves a lot of time.

Also, you might want to check out BluePrint courses.

I don't know of any easier way to transfer content and assignments from one course to another. 

The Copy Assignment tool can be used to copy announcements, too.  Once they are copied to the new course, you do have to then edit and publish them for them to be sent out.
