As an instructor, you can copy a module in a course directly into any active course in which you are enrolled. You can also send a module to other instructors at your institution as well as copy individual module items to other courses. When you copy a module, any assets within that module (images, files, etc.) will be included in your module copy.

Notes:

To share course content, you must have the Course Content - add / edit / delete permission enabled.
Shared content does not count against course or user quotas.
If you copy the same module to the same course more than once, the module you previously copied will be overwritten with the newly copied module.
