  1. Do you have an extensive course with many documents, assignments and conditions? Then choose Copy All Components to copy all components to the new course.
  2. Do you have a simple course containing a few documents without (group) restrictions, release conditions and/or internal links? Then choose Select Components to select which components you want to copy. Then follow the steps.

Do you want to use a rubric from one course in another one? It is important that you do not copy the associations with the rubric from the source course. You can read more about doing this in the article How do I copy a rubric from one course to another?
