Instructors may use the Import Package page to upload information into the course. For example, if they have exported a course then may import the whole course package, or selected parts of the course through Import Package.
Note: When Content, Discussion Boards, Gradebook Items, Groups or Tests, Surveys and Pools are imported, the existing information in the course will also remain. The new information will be added to the destination course, it will not replace existing information. If Course Settings are imported, the Course Settings in the destination course will be written over. The only original setting that will remain is Course ID.
To open the Import Course Cartridge page, click Import Package in Course Options in the Course Control Panel.
