This article walks through the steps of copying one Canvas Course Site into another Canvas Course Site.
Instructions
Log in to https://boisestatecanvas.instructure.com/.
Navigate to the Canvas course site that you want to copy content into. (NOTE: this would be the New Blank Course Site)
In the Course Menu, select Settings.
From the menu on the right-hand side of the screen select Import Course Content.
A new page will open titled, Import Content.
From the Content-Type drop-down menu select Copy a Canvas Course. (Note there are many other import options available to you! Canvas can import lots of different types of content.)
In the Search for a Course box, start typing in the course name that you want to copy and select the Course you want to Copy From on the list that automatically displays.
You can choose the radial button for either All Content or Select Specific Content
When you Select Specific Content there will be a 2nd page that asks you the check boxes next to each area of content you wish to copy.
You can batch adjust course dates here, or there is another batch date change option available in the Canvas Assignments area of the course as well.
Select Import.
A live update will display the status of the import, starting at “Queued” and ending with a green “Completed” once the import is done.
Select Home from your Course Menu and check out the content.
