As an instructor, you can copy individual pages in one course directly into any active course in which you are enrolled. You can also send pages to other instructors at your institution. When you copy a page, any assets within that page (images, files, etc.) will be included in your page 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 page to the same course more than once, the page you previously copied will be overwritten with the newly copied page.
