Course Copy Options

There are two ways to copy a LMS-integrated WebAssign course. Choose the method that best fits your needs.

Copy in LMS

This is the quickest and easiest method.

This method is recommended for:

• Instructors reusing their course from a previous term.
• Instructors who are copying a course from a template or another instructor and do not need to edit assignments.

Copy in WebAssign and link in LMS

This method is more time-consuming, but preserves certain settings and lets instructors edit assignments.

This method is recommended for:

• Course coordinators or instructors creating a course template for other instructors to use.
• Instructors who are copying a course from a template or another instructor and want to edit assignments.
• Instructors upgrading to a new edition in their copied course.
• Instructors who have extensively customized their WebAssign course. Certain WebAssign settings are not copied to your new course when you copy in LMS, but are copied when you copy in WebAssign.
