Share Content

Share a single content item

Individual items within a course like Assignments, Pages, Quizzes, etc. can be sent directly to another instructor from inside your course. For example, see this guide on how to send an Assignment to another instructor.

Share entire course

With a limited number of instructors

To share a whole course with a limited number of CSUSM instructors, you can add the instructors to your course with the role "View/Copy Content Only." With this role they can view your course (but not edit or see student data) and import the content into their course. Please see this help guide on adding users.

With a large group of instructors

If you want to share your course with a large number of instructors and/or don't wish to add anyone directly to your own course, you can share your course to the Commons. Currently you can choose to share to CSUSM users only, select groups (created by CSUSM Canvas admins), or anyone in Canvas. Sharing your course to the Commons Guide.

If you do not wish to add anyone to your course or share to the Commons, you can export your course, save the course export to your computer, and send it to the other instructor. Export a Canvas Course Guide.
